The Weekly Wrap, #4

What I’ve Been Reading

Olivia Twist by Lorie Langdon. Review.

• What it was about: Olivia Twist, a well-to-do lady, meets a boy from her past but he doesn’t know she’s his old pal Ollie.
• Initial Thoughts: It was awful. I hated it.

The Turn of the Screw by Henry James. Finished. Review pending.

• What it was about: A young woman accepts her first job as the governess for two  children, Flora and Miles at a haunted manor.
• Initial Thoughts: The language is what you would expect from a book published in the 1800s. However, I think it’ll make a great basis for the next season of The Haunting of Hill House (The Haunting of Bly Manor).

What I Did

1. I worked at a few different schools, including my favorite.

2. I ate at a restaurant called Devine Pastabilities. They serve pasta in a sub roll. Sounds weird, but it was deliciously unhealthy.

3.  I took my dog to the dog park and on a hike. She had a blast!
