I enjoyed it but not its not as as good as Hill House.

For me in the end it also deviated waaay too far from The Turn Of The Screw... Which is just a much better story than what was presented

Book spoilers
[spoiler]For those who don't know, at the end of the book, it's left ambiguous whether the ghosts are real or the governess has been delusional all along. Also, Miles dies... Either his spirit already being dead thus his body left "lifeless" when Peter Quint is driven out, OR The Governess accidentally having smothered him whilst trying to drive out the "spirits", depending on your interpretation (supernatural or psychological).[/QUOTE]

Obviously a totally different story to this adaptation in the end (half of the characters don't even exist) but it is a good read. A very short one though. Giving it thought, there probably isn't even enough content for more than 3 or 4 episodes so I guess they had to add a lot.
