Millie (22 KP) rated ttyl (Internet Girls #1) in Books

Jan 27, 2020

This was a fun,text-messenging style that took me back to high school. I wish I had known about it when it came out in 2004 and I do wonder how much of it was updated in this latest 2014 edition with technology's ever-changing trends. Yes, it was a bit melodramatic, but I expected nothing less than a book written about three teenage girls. I think a lot of the themes of this book - friendship, loyalty, forgiveness, etc. are important for young people out there. Also, I'm not going to lie, I am curious to read YOLO when it comes out.

*Although I did receive this book for free Goodreads First Reads, all of my thoughts and opinions are my own

Does Alfred Hitchcock do anything else?

Right now, I'm in a film class for school and it's all about Alfred Hitchcock. We're watching most of his collected works and honestly, I feel like once you've seen one, you've seen them all. It's clear through his films that he's very into murder and murder mysteries and thrillers. He likes stairs and birds and shadows. He's batshit about symbolism and irony and cyclical plots, something always turns back around.

This is my fourth or maybe fifth Hitchcock film and I don't know how I am supposed to continue to watch them. I feel like I'm watching a bad show that should've ended seasons ago but hasn't had the guts to call it quits yet. It's so disappointing!
