'The Landlady' by Roald Dahl

For this week, I had read another short story which was written by Roald Dahl. The story made me think of the feelings of the main characters Billy and it was very vivid to me that I could imagine the situation. The setting tooks place in Bath, England and the main characters are a boy named called Billy and the landlady.

The overall story is about a boy called Billy who is travelling to Bath for his future career. He was struggling of finding a place to sleep, but eventually finds a place. He went there as if a magic power pulled him to the house. When he knocked the door, a women just popped out of the door as she expected his appearance. It made me suspicious from this part and I had an idea that this story will be kind of a thriller. The landlady kept giving teas and biscuits to Billy which made me suspicious. She also stuffed animals in her house and there were only two guests over years. When Billy said that he was familiar of the names of the guests, the landlady tried to ignore him , and I could briefly predict that the guests were famous for their disappearance. The story ended mysteriously and I think Billy will probably be staffed with the guests together.

This was an interesting story to read, and it was a nice thriller to read. I didn't lose tension while I was reading and the story made me guess what will happen at the end.
