This season took me a while to get into. The start was great, I LOVED faith, shes one of my fav characters now, I love what they did with her and all her complexities, she felt really well written and interesting, and I love that they left potential for her to return in later seasons.
Buffy and Angel's romance this season was also so sweet. Theyre always a couple im surprised to find myslef liking. Buffy is usually a hit or miss for me as a character, as sometimes she can be really annoying, but also she's always really well written.
I didnt like the creepy cordelia and the watcher stuff, i'd say shes much better with Xander but then again no one is. Talking of Xander thank god he got a bit of a back seat this season.
Willow's arc becoming a wiccan was interesting, especially the vampire willow ep, but I feel her character had very split relevance this season. The finale was great fun to watch, though the wrap up felt too rushed.
Overall it was a great season even despite it's flaws 7/10

This book was AMAZING. I absolutely LOVED how it was written, it was so beautifully done and felt so realistic. I loved how the author portayed the complexity of emotions to do with the different relationships Lucy the main character had, with Susannah, her mother and her best friend.
I think the guilt and fear she struggled with resonated alot with me, and the choices she made felt very real and understandable, despite their hurtful nature. I loved the ending, it felt hopefull and felt like the book came to that end very naturally.
I think the love between Susannah and Lucy was written in such a raw and beautiful way, as well as her relationship with her family and it was crazy to see how much of the book put my own feelings into words.
definetly one of the best books ive read (thank u harley for the recomendation :3) 10/10

This was a really interesting story! I found it a little hard to read/visualise sometimes as the world building wasnt really a focus, but I enjoyed that as I prefered to read about the characters.
I loved seeing the relationship between the main two characters build, and the twist at the end made everything come together perfectly. Seeing the main two characters learn about eachother and share parts of one another until later in the book they literally shared parts of eachother was really cool.
I liked the contrast the two sides had, of nature and technology, and I think it was a cliche but good way to show their differences. It was a really sweet book, and beautifully written, and the letters between the two characters were really sweet. 7/10

This season was probably the worst of the show. ive been watching the show since it started and they did the characters so dirty with this ending. the first half of the season was alright, the mystery was interesting enough, but the last 3 episodes felt like an insult. So many plotlines were left unresolved, as well as the ending feeling rushed and like no fucks were given.
Its honestly so dissapointing to see that after all that, they said the only solution was to erase themsleves from hisotry, rather than face their trauma or find a better solution. Dont even get me started on Five and Laila, that was so so weird. 2/10 it was genuinely insulting ending

I LOVED THIS SHOW SO MUCH!!!!! I love all the themes and I think the characters are all very interesting in their own ways (they are all insane) and i love them. my favourite was Claudia (i love characters doomed by the narrative) and louis, tho he is a very unrealiable narrator, but i think that makes him more interesting.
I think it was really cool to see the difference between s1 and s2, the frist really sucks you into the story, and into louis perspective, and then the second takes everything you know and slowly turns it on ur head, and its amazing. By the end of it I had no idea what i could and could not trust, and the show plays amazingly with how memory distorts, and can be used in our favour and against us, even by ourselves.
There is so much more i could say about this show and i will probably write a longer post at some point. 10/10

This season was so good! It felt a lot more interesting than the previous 2 seasons, and the emotional moments also felt stronger. I loved that they finally gave attention to Soren and his complicated relationship with Viren. Talking of Viren, I think they handled his redemption well, though he is still very unlikable in my eyes.
I liked that they had Callum's arc mirror Viren's, however I feel like they solved it way too easily or quickly. I loved Raylas storyline in this season, and it felt so heartwarming and sweet.
I also liked that they went back to focusing more on their wider themes of the next generation and peacekeeping, and I also liked how the season eneded, a great cliffhanger, and a perfect set up for the final season. 8/10, I really hope the next season is as good as this.

This book was a really nice read, I didnt find it too hard to keep up with it as i do with most books. I think it was slow at times, but the way the stories were told kept them interesting. It was nice to see the main characters life across multiple years, and helped to build a bigger picture of her relationship with her mother.
I really liked how her relationship with religion and God was depicted too, as it resonated with me, as well as bringing more perspective. It was interesting also to see the relationship she had with the individual townsfolk, and those of which carried through her life, and in what ways.
I am sure there were metaphors that i didnt catch onto, but i believe a second read through would be interesting for me. 8/10
