CURRENTLY READING

🩷 Krista: The Summer We Ran by Audrey Ingram

💛 Becca: Sunrise On The Reaping by Suzanne Collins - just finished this before going back in a dark editing cave and it was so sad yet so good and I can't wait for the movie, Dangerously Ours (reread while final editing phase)

LAST MOVIE WATCHED

🩷 Krista: Captain America: Brave New World (2025) - Rating: 5/10Thunderbolts (2025) - Rating: 10/10Final Destination: Bloodline (2025) - Rating: 9/10

💛 Becca: Until Dawn - Rating 9/10: Krista & I played this video game wayyyy back when, and so I was very excited to watch the movie. Even though the movie doesn't really follow the same characters and storyline, I thought it was very unpredictable, and I found myself really rooting for many of the characters to make it out alive!Gattaca - Rating 10/10: Finally got around to watching this gem! Our YA publisher (Wednesday Books) promoted The Raging Ones as "Gattaca" back in the day, and I'd never seen the movie (Krista had!) so I've always wanted to watch it. And I loved this way more than I even expected. I thought the whole film was going to take place in space, and I loved how it was more about getting on the space mission. Which, yes, totally reminded me of The Raging Ones hehe 🤓

Heretic - Rating 9/10: Another really fantastic horror movie! Krista had watched and enjoyed this one and recommended it, so I finally got around to watching it too. I really had no idea where it was going, and I love horror movies that keep me on my toes. It also had another set of rootable characters!

BEST IN TV

🩷 Krista: The Last of Us (Season 2), The Studio

💛 Becca: Étoile, The Last Anniversary, Overcompensating

RIP to Étoile. Krista and I both loved this show on Amazon Prime. We are ballet junkies (not dancers ourselves, but just love learning more about the ballet world), and we also adore the quick-wit of Amy Sherman-Palladino (Gilmore Girls, Bunheads). We binged the first season before the season two cancellation decision was made. Overall, it's still worth watching for those who love ballet and Sherman-Palladino's previous shows.

The Last Anniversary is such a great binge! It's based on the novel from Liane Moriarty of the same name, and if you love mysteries combined with generational sagas following women in a family, then this one is for you. It's also on Amazon Prime.

Another one on Prime is Overcompensating. This is the only one I haven't finished yet, but I was really enjoying it. It reminded me a lot of The Sex Lives of College Girls since it's also set in college and a comedy that focuses on the awkwardness of being in college for the first time and meeting new people and figuring out who you are and who you want to be. Both are really enjoyable if you're into this type of comedy.

Abby (Eliot’s version)

Love you had time away before your final push for DO!! Can’t wait to see how WWW concludes 🍓🕷️ Eagerly anticipating more Finn chapters this month!! Excited to see how their story keeps progressing and what the tipping point for them will be 👀😏 Happy writing ladies! All the hugs, love and good vibes your way as you finish up your second book of the year 💕✨

i’m so curious on the rating for CA:Brave New World haha

YAY! I always look forward to these updates! They’re so fun! :) 𝐓𝐕 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐰𝐬: • I’m watching “Overcompensating” as well! I’m not too far into it, but I’m enjoying it so far! • Love Island USA! This is the first time that I’ve been able to watch along live, and not just through TikTok clips, so that’s been fun! :) I love most of the women, but the men are a bit…meh (but I feel like that’s usually the case for these things 😅). It’s just getting started though, so I’m excited to see how the Islanders’ relationships will develop + change throughout the process! 𝐒𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐬: • “Infinity” - The Band Camino. • “I’ve Got A Dark Alley And A Bad Idea That Says You Should Shut Your Mouth (Summer Song)” - Fall Out Boy. • “Crush” - Ethel Cain. • “Subway” - Chappell Roan. I’m hoping she releases this one soon (🤞)! I’ve been surviving by listening to her performances of the song that were uploaded onto Spotify — I can’t wait to have the completed version blasting in my eardrums. I’m glad that you both got to get away for a little bit and spend some time with loved ones! That’s always good! 🤎🤎

devastated about Etoile 😭

Until Dawn looks good! I’ve been looking for new recommendations! I also really want to see Thunderbolts. We recently binged season 1 of The Buccaneers and really liked it. It feels like something Audrey would love. We decided to watch it now because season 2 is going to be releasing soon! Can’t wait. Now we’re onto Ginny & Georgia season 2. It’s good, but I’m oddly distracted by how old Ginny’s brother got between seasons 2 and 3 (and he’s still playing a 9-year-old!). As someone who LOVES 80s and 90s romcoms where all the actors are definitely not in high school I don’t understand why I’m so distracted by this. I think it’s because the character is written so young maybe? Also, I randomly decided last week that I wanted to try for one of the viral labubu dolls. After spending a couple of evenings failing to secure one during the evening drops. I just got one at the retail price! Feels like I won the lottery.

OH MY GOSH, I **LOVE** LABUBUS! :’) I was able to snag one for myself around Christmas last year, and I teared up a little bit while unboxing it because they’re just **so cute** to me (😭). I haven’t been able to snag any of their new “Big Into Energy” series, which is a bit disappointing because I was so excited when they announced them (☹️), but it’s fineeee. I’ll manage to survive without one somehow I guess (😂😂). ~~

Arrow

They are so fun! New “Big Into Energy” labubus are soooo cute! I love the tie dye colors. And that set has the best secret IMHO. I haven’t been able to get one either. I almost got one for in store pick-up last week, but accidentally clicked out of the screen! I snagged a “Have a Seat” yesterday. I really like the pastel colors in that set. This craze so reminds me of the 80s and 90s toy obsessions. I swear hunting down a retail price labubu was half the fun for me!

Krista & Becca Ritchie

I haven't talked to Krista too much about Brave New World, but she said it wasn't that good and Bucky isn't in it too much, I think. I'm not exactly sure why she gave it a 5, but we both saw Thunderbolts together and agreed it was one of the best MCU movies out there. 10 out of 10!

Krista & Becca Ritchie

It is sooooo sad. I feel like Amazon Prime keeps doing this to shows that have potential to gain a larger fanbase if they just gave it a chance. Like My Lady Jane. I'm a little concerned about the future of TV if they keep A.) cancelling shows so quickly and B.) having such large gaps between seasons.

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Ohhh I'm going to have to go find Subway! I didn't know she has a new song coming out. I haven't watched a Love Island in so long, but apparently there is a girl from Love Island France on the new season of Below Deck. She's really entertaining and funny!

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Krista loveees The Buccaneers! I haven't seen it yet though. Oh I haven't seen Season 3 of Ginny & Georgia yet but I know what you're talking about. I think I saw a picture of him, and he looks so much older! Maybe it's his glasses that are just more distracting. They fit the face of a younger kid but look a little silly after his growth spurt in a way that might take you out. Thunderbolts is definitely worth seeing. Krista and I saw it together, and it was one of the best MCU movies. It almost felt like an X-Men movie. I already want to rewatch it!

Krista & Becca Ritchie

I need to ask her why a 5/10. I know she mentioned that Bucky wasn't in it a lot to me, but I'm unsure why such a low rating. It's one I still need to see, too. She *did* watch it on a plane, which maybe affected her score too.

Lanie

love haymitch! can't wait for the movie!!

Yes, I love these posts 🥹 They’re always my favourite of the month 💫 I’ve actually been meaning to catch up on loads of Marvel stuff lately because I’ve heard Thunderbolts and Agatha are both really good 👀✨ I didn’t watch them in real time, partly because I was a bit reluctant at first, but now I’m definitely intrigued. So do let me know which MCU shows or films you’ve been watching, I’d love to know what’s been worth it lately 🧡🎬 Also, have you guys ended up watching or finishing White Lotus, The Last of Us, Andor, and those kinds of shows? 🛋️📺 I’ve also heard good things about the Netflix show the residence! Brandon Sanderson actually recommended to it lol as a “cozy true crime”. Are there other shows and movies currently on ur radar? I finally finished Andor this weekend and thought it was really good 🤍 I do think the show has a slight pacing issue, there are definitely moments that feel like side quests or filler that don’t fully drive the plot forward, but it still stands as one of the best Star Wars properties to date 🌌🙌 I’ve also been thinking about getting a cinema subscription 🍿 Here in the UK, they cost anywhere between £20 and £30 a month, but you get unlimited entry to films and I keep wondering if that might be worth it. There’s a part of me that really wants to do it, especially with Fantastic Four and Superman coming in July, so it might actually end up being the more financially savvy thing to do 💸🎥 That being said, there are just so many subscriptions nowadays 😩 and if I’m honest, my biggest first world problem right now is trying to figure out how to watch all the sports I follow. Everything’s so sparsed out between Sky Sports, Discovery Plus, TNT Sports, and more, and it’s so frustrating that there isn’t one cohesive package 📺⚽🏎️ I’ve recently been super into Drive to Survive on Netflix, which totally surprised me 🤯 I never thought I’d get into Formula One, but the drama, the dynamics between the 20 drivers and their teams, and the pure sportsmanship on display really pulled me in. Highly recommend if you haven’t seen it yet 🏁🔥 So now I’ve started following Formula One, but it’s a bit of a pain because I don’t have proper coverage for it and it’s hard to know which platform actually gives you what you want. Everything’s shifting and confusing, and I’m just trying to be smart about it without accidentally spending half my income on streaming platforms 😅 Let me know what you guys do when it comes to watching sports or if you have a cinema subscription. Do you still go often or do you feel like it’s not as relevant anymore with streaming being what it is? Would love to hear your thoughts 🧡📽️✨
