haha, it’s ok! i love to watch bad movies but then they end up being,,,,, Bad. i haven’t read Shrill yet (although i do own a copy!) but i really like the TV show! i feel like the lead actress is super fun and there’s a decent amount of diversity as well. i honestly want the MC’s roommate to get her own spinoff, she’s a British Black lesbian and is loads of fun.
