What book would you recommend for someone who enjoyed "Jane Eyre" and Daphne DuMaurier's "Rebecca"?

The reason I'm asking...my partner Doris is *not* a bibliophile but she did like the above two books a lot, so I'm trying to think of another book to get her.

She's reading "Wuthering Heights" now, but isn't getting into it much. (Ironically, I also disliked "Wuthering Heights" though I liked "Jane Eyre" a lot).

Has she read _I Capture the Castle_? Not gothic, but a very solid coming-of-age story. Also, erm... does she like Jane Austen? P&P is usually a hit with most everybody, but there's not so much crazy women in the attics and moors and such...
