A review by bookilotty
The Turn of the Screw by Henry James
slow-paced
3.0
So slow and all the words! Even Emma Thompson's brilliant narration couldn't keep me from yawning. It picks up towards the end, but it's a bit of a slog to get there. The 1961 movie The Innocents was my basis of knowledge for this story, and tbh it's way more terrifying than the novella. Highly recommend a watch, especially if you came to the book from watching Bly Manor.
