I did a film study on M Night Shyamalan in high school, and so I kind of always want to see his films.

Also love what you are reading ❤️. I just finished Firefly Land and The Women by Kristen Hannah. I love her writing, she generally writes historical fiction about various time periods, and focuses on women’s roles and experiences during that time.

I just started The Devil and the Dark Water by Stuart Turton. I haven’t finished it, but the intro hooked me in immediately.

By the same author, few years ago, I read The Seven and a Half deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, and I highly recommend that because of the little I know about you from Substack. I think you could appreciate the interesting and thoughtful writing. The timeline of it is like nothing else I have ever read. Ending is not my favorite, but beyond that it’s truly an interesting concept of a book and pushes the boundaries of the structure a story can be told in.

Great stuff as always. I love Ali Hazlewood :) and read this one too though read like 10 other romances since and can't remember what it's about. OMG!

Ok, onto films. I'm dying to see "Trap" because my greatest fear is losing a child and while I'm not sure if this film is directly about that, the idea of being at a concert with his daughter, hits close to home. I'm thinking maybe exposure therapy through cinematic representation will be a good stand-in to surmount my irrational fears.

And wait, what did you think about "It Ends with Us" - Publicity dumpster fire to the side? And almost forgot about "Don't Worry Darlings" BTS nonsense.

It Ends With Us was alright. I think I was more excited by the thought of it. I had problems connecting with Lily for some reason, but no problems with any of the other characters who did an amazing job. Loved Atlas! And Ryle’s sister and her husband!
