I finished Rebecca and what
#Haunting of Hill House: what (positive)#Rebecca: what (derogatory)#actually 90% of the book was good but she really flopped with that ending#it just gave 'yeah I got bored writing this after the Big Reveal so I'm just gonna end it abruptly and in an unsatisfying way. thanks'#I'll be honest the book could have ended with the court scene and lost nothing#the last 50 page Random Blackmail Plot didn't need to be in there at all#it really added nothing and just dragged things out for no reason. he already got away with murder#I would have just left the book on the uneasy 'he got away with murder and now we have to live with that the rest of our lives' bit#rather than... whatever the hell THAT was#it was supposed to Absolve them I guess but it really didn't? they're still a pair of murderers who used their wealth for Evil in the end#(or one murderer and his abetting wife)#like git gud. bite the bullet Daphne. let them be fucked up a little.#lmk if I need to tag spoilers but the book IS 80 years old
