yes ive heard that there were some creative liberties taken and del toro used some of his own life experiences in his adaptation. would love to know what you think after you watch it!

i think the way it ended with a message of hope and forgiveness was beautiful. in the face of tragedy, the sun will still rise and we will live on. now i’m inspired to read more gothic literature, starting with frankenstein (i know… my english teacher in hs had very specific taste)

yeah he might as well just take it all the way off atp 🤭

great point 🤍

given the rates of infidelity in monogamous couples (which is probably higher than reported, and it’s already high) i think the lack of communication and willingness to be honest about each person’s needs is causing so much turmoil in relationships, so i do think the secrecy is the biggest problem

i think it could be a bit of both where some people have a hard boundary with using it in a relationship at all where others would be open if it was a discussion first. there’s definitely a lack of nuance with the discourse around it online & i agree that it shouldn’t be written off as always bad

twins!

i think it depends on what each relationship defines as cheating. the problem is that a lot of couples aren’t having that conversation and just assume they’re on the same page. i would definitely consider this cheating if it wasn’t discussed beforehand

- pumpkin bread, and watching fall themed shows and movies. i struggle with the shorter days too, but i’ve realized what i really don’t like is the expectation of year round productivity placed on us when nature is calling us to rest

wishing calmer days ahead for you 🫂🤍

fall feels inherently nostalgic for me, unlike any other season. i see it as a transitional period that is asking us to slow down, notice, and reflect as we prepare for winter. i see it as a sweet “goodbye for now” from the plants before they go dormant. i love the colorful leaves, spiced candles-

yeah the part of your world series is sooo good! i really enjoyed each book in it 🥰

belly needs time to figure herself out before i can honestly root for her and conrad being together 😩

i really appreciated sam’s family plotline as well throughout the story - you can tell abby put a lot of thought and care into it, and i love that she consulted with medical professionals

xavier is now one of my fav book boyfriends, the ultimate acts of service lover 🥹

overall 4.5/5 ⭐️

they had to find a way to pay for the extra episodes this season and the copyright for the soundtrack which is currently carrying the show on its back along with chris briney’s acting 😂😂😂

my advice is to fast forward through the belly and jeremiah scenes 😂

and actually without spoiling, agnes does him a favor regarding the internship, so she is really looking out for him/genuinely cares 🥰 even if they’re not a couple i hope they remain good friends

agreed, i was actually thinking they would make a cute couple 😂 also because she seems like the one person in this show who actually cares about how he’s feeling too besides laurel 😭

do you know which episode you left off on? episode 5 was conrad’s pov and the best of the entire show imo. but now we’re back to suffering 😭

ooh maybe that was one of the things they changed in the show 👀
