Today I bought Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier as that will be one of my book group's June read. Never read it or her before but am looking forward to it (won't read it till June, though).
(My Mum says she has read it several times and thought she had a copy, but she couldn't find it so I've bought it.)

I loved this one, EC. I can't even pronounce the author's name, never mind remember it! LOL.
