Housemates

'I love playing with my dog, Jake,' I thought. 'But now I'm going to study at the University of Sydney and I'm going to live hours away from here, in the big city.(p.1)

I read "Housemates" today. It's about the boy who studies in Sydney. Chris leaves his home in a small town in Australia to go and study at the University of Sydney. He needs to find somewhere to live. However it is not easy to find a house to share in a big city. Every house has its problems, and not all of Chris's housemates are easy to live with. In fact, some of them are very difficult people!

 The turn of the screw

We were sitting by the fire telling ghost stories. 'Would you like to hear a ghost story about two children?' (p.1)

It's story about the young woman who arrives at a large country house. Her job is to look after the two children who live there. Since she met them, they have understood each other and she loves them. However she noticed that there are two ghosts in their home and they try to take the two children in the ghost world. The longer she stays, the more she feels hat the two children.
