  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.5

a very good ghost story to be sure, although definitely confusing when you run into the idea of whether these ghosts are real, or if it’s something the matter with the governess herself — but I can never not enjoy James’ writing!
