The Turn of the Screw | Henry James

Mehso-so

What the hell did I just read? 😂
I think I would need to read this book again more carefully to form an opinion on it. It's an interesting story which leaves the reader with more questions than answers. Its vagueness adds to the creepiness of this unusual ghost story, but I'm not sure how I feel about it...

My third book by the author. His books are creepy, around 200 pgs usually, and easy to read. I also watched the movie with Kevin Bacon. 4⭐

LeahBergen That movie freaked me out! 😆 1w
AnnCrystal 👏This movie was incredibly creepy and absolutely good, still one of our all time favorites 🤩👍.

Actually, I have this book but was afraid it might mess with my opinion about the movie...I should give it a try (maybe for Halloween).

Books I read recently.
My favorite was Strangers. Set in Tokyo , a recently divorced screenwriter has moved into his studio workplace to live. Immediately atmospheric. Suggestive , thoughtful, a short book and every word is numbered 👌🏻. I loved this one.

North Woods was a beautiful book to read.

Christ on a Bike I enjoyed, but didn‘t love it.

Writing Retreat , ok till 2d half. Then quickly a bail.

batsy Haven't heard of Strangers! Sounds good, adding to the list 👍🏾 4w

March #Bookspin and #Doublespin! ☘️🏀🌼🇮🇪⛹️‍♂️🌷⚾️

Between St. Patty‘s Day, Spring Break, March Madness, Spring Training, and Spring Break (I REALLY love Spring Break), March might be my favorite month (aside from October, of course).

I didn‘t finish a single book in February, but hopefully a whole week off will help me get back on track.

TheAromaofBooks Yay!!! Enjoy!! 4w

#LitsyLoveCrafters @Catsandbooks I have been busy doing glass painting. I am so proud of the vases and oil bottles I've done. I put lights in the bottle with sunflowers on it. It looks so cool In the dark.

Eliza Caine is haphazardly recruited as a governess to two children after her father dies. However, she discovers that she is the sixth governess in a row within the year. What went wrong?

I anyday prefer psychological horror more than the in-your-face horror. Interesting plot but too obvious for me by the end. However, I really enjoyed the writing style. A quick page turner and an engrossing read.
4/5🌟
