"I couldn't put down this story of a group of friends who meet in summer camp as teenagers and remain close through middle age. I am always infatuated with Meg Wolitzer's characters, and her intense interest in their relationships and importance to each other. And she always makes me laugh."

Excellent educational but still entertaining watch.
I really enjoyed Netflixes new offering of Sex Education it's something I can see appealing to a wide variety of ages, it gets across the issues in relationships and sex without making teenagers cringe and without making {this 30 year old) roll their eyes too. I laughed, I cried, I learnt new things and I would highly recommend it to young teenagers as it does come across very sensible with the world of sex without sort of turning them away as it puts it across in a very entertaining manner.

The only reason it got 9 out of 10 and not 10 is because the series finale upset and I'm stubborn.

My and my other half struggled with that too. It's very confusing. It's as if they couldn't make their mind up so just did a bit of everything haha.

Apparently the director was hugely influenced by John Hughes films like the breakfast club and wanted to get that feeling across hence the 80's feel. It was also designed to have appeal both here and in the USA but was set in the UK.

Pretty confusing though I do agree!

Reading this during the 2020 CoVid-19 Pandemic gave me a different crisis to think about. The characters were teenagers which means they made some dumb choices but it stuck to that the whole way through. Were they changed in the end yes, but only in the ways you'd expect teenagers to be they didn't suddenly become super wise and I liked that. The story kept me engaged and the suspense hit at the right points. The ending did seem to come a little fast I feel like a few more pages could have wrapped things up a little better but it doesn't take away from the story still a decent ending.

Better than expected
I didn't have high hopes for this. It came across on the trailer as a silly comedy. It turns out to be more about the parents than the teenagers to be fair. It was funny in places and not a gross out comedy I thought it might have been.
