(2/2)
i didnt expect a perfect adaptation, but i don’t understand why they did just SO MUCH. i’m being so serious when i ask were they trying to get the show renewed by adding more plot of expecting it to fail and cramming EVERYTHING in?

nothing in the world could have prepared me for how far they strayed from source material in shadow and bone season 2. they had 7 books to pull from, and were supposed to be on book two. they smushed two books together, put stuff from books 5-7 in the season, and after that just made shit up. characters literally switched jobs and ships with one another from what they had in the book (1/2)

I feel like part of the reason I loved It Happened One Summer so much is because it was one of the first romances I read and when I picked it up I knew nothing about the author or genre, so I'm trying to go into this with low expectations and not set myself up for failure, but ahhhhhhhhh this might be my most anticipated read ever and my expectations r thru the roof

Went into this with high spirits (maybe not expectations, but I was manifesting it'd be good), and on the literal first page the main character is knowingly hooking up with a guy who has a girlfriend. Awesome.

WTF HAPPENED TO MATTHEWS CHARACTER

i cant get thru this goddamn book because matthew went from being perfectly protective in the first book to a secret keeping sexist in this one. + you mean to tell me they dont go back to the future until the next book. im so bored of the only conflict being diana not fitting into the past. im starting to regret recomending this series cause this is such a decline in quality damn

Jena
Jena is 25% done with The Arc
I'm pretty sure this commentary is supposed to be making fun of the idea that "capitalism breeds innovation," but the way it's executed it just sounds like an angry out of touch boomer is mad at millennial/gen z culture. I feel like they should be making fun of dumb tv products or like mass corporations, not "self care spas" and similar businesses that are made for and by women
