This took me much longer to read than it should have so I‘m behind schedule for #HitchToScreen with @JenlovesJT47
I had not heard of it before, and really enjoyed it.

Finished this #HitchToScreen pick.
I‘ll admit I almost bailed before we ever got on the train.
I‘m glad I stuck around because the story was interesting and I really wanted to know of Miss Froy‘s fate…or if she existed at all.
I must say I struggled with the writing style a bit. I have a question for everyone that I‘ll put in a spoiler below.
The movie was pretty different and I have a thought I‘ll put in the spoilers below as well.

Sorry everyone for getting so behind on #HitchToScreen ! It's been a rough few weeks. But I'm happy to announce our next buddy read is a favorite of mine, Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier.
The movie is amazing as well. Remember it's very casual. We have 6 weeks to read the book, just post a review & tag me when you're done. Anyone is welcome to join! If you'd like to be added or removed from the tag list, let me know. Happy reading!

“The day before the disaster, Iris Carr had her first premonition of danger.”

I considered bailing on this during the first few chapters, but decided to stick it out until the title happened. I‘m so glad I did! The dull, frustrating first several chapters are important to set up why no one wants to listen to or help Iris. I figured out the mystery fairly early on but reading along to see how the characters would figure it out and the mental tortures Iris goes through along the way was very enjoyable. Movie is on Hoopla!
The Wheel Spins aka The Lady Vanishes - this was a lot of fun! I've never seen the movie but would like to check it out. The MC wasn't very likeable but it's impossible not to sympathize with her distress. I liked how the overheard conversation between Hare and the professor, about the effectiveness of juries and reliability of witnesses, set a theme for how the journey would play out.

The movie is probably my favorite of Hitchcock‘s & I enjoy the other movies & books it has inspired so much that our dog is named Owen after Danny Devito‘s character in Throw Momma From The Train, so I am thankful to @JenlovesJT47 for organizing the #HitchToScreen to finally get my copy off of my TBR! I didn‘t love the audio performance here and I think the tension would have been more pronounced physically reading it but still what a debut novel!
I enjoyed this dark thriller. I‘ve read the first three in the Ripley series, so this is my fourth Highsmith. Glad there are still more. #HitchToScreen
