Weird use of teeth
Representation and a caste system that is broken. Crows are at the bottom but without them the world would die of disease.
Characters are represented subtlety and you almost miss it. It is woven so seamlessly into the plot.

The Princess Bride meets Six of Crows and together they burn the world down.

If you enjoy the As You Wish of Princess Bride than this needs to be on the top of your list.

Set during season 4, this book finds the APO team racing to find a cure for Weiss's disease, something he picked up on a mission. As much as I loved the show when I read this book, the characters acted stupidly and the plot got boring. It wasn't a complete loss, but I didn't read any of the further books.

Uncanny........
Seems to unreal how alike this film is to our current situation, details on how it starts shuts down the body respiratory problems, and the goes on about hand sanitizer, washing your hands more often, keeping social distance, it's ridiculous.

Brilliant film starting with one women traveling for work and comes into contact with a fast acting disease it shows how easily and how quickly it can get around, the film follows a few different people what they go through.
