Daphne du Maurier's Classics of the Macabre by Daphne du Maurier
4.0
If it was possible, I would give this collection 4.5 stars. Unfortunately, it was solidly 5 stars for me until the last story, which I just felt lacked the atmosphere and tight storyline of the other excellent short stories in this collection. The middle 4 stories are so incredibly atmospheric and bleak, I had to shut the book and step away to let them sink in. Daphne du Maurier has certainly now earned her place as my favorite author.
