Love all the highs and lows
This has to be one of the great netflix series at the moment that will hopefully be loved by all for a long time.

I live the fact that it is a close up look into grief, something that can sometimes be overlooked or over dramatised in modern stories.

Each episode is a whirlwind of emotions. The highs and low juxtaposition one another so well, making each one seem better/worse than it would if they weren't coupled.

Some excellent characters that work really well together and create the highs/loss throughout.

Joe Wilkinson is something else, absolute dynamite of a man.

Captivating
I've read John Grisham's books before and found them a little dry or heavy so when I got this for Christmas I was a bit unsure. I immediately feel in love with Cullen Post, he's a really believable character and I found his dialogue much quicker/easier than other Grisham works.

All the characters were really good and fit together well. I liked that the suspects are given early on so yoy start to build your own hatred for them.

I did find the story heavy and I generally red it a bit slower than other books as I got bogged down in the feelings. It was immersive.

Movie Favorite Watch

"Another one of mine is Braveheart. I just loved the whole — I mean, I love anything that you can really feel. That was such a beautiful story, and the way it was filmed, and just the heart — it just grabs your attention and you can’t stop watching it. The tragedy in it. It’s epic. It’s one of those movies you can only dream about being in. I think I watched that movie before every fight. And I cry at the end of that movie. I must have seen it millions of times. I’m like that: I like to watch movies over and over and over, and so I’ve done that with Braveheart."
