I Know What You Need (i actually LOVED this story until the end. ![]() Overall though, I don’t have much to say. I’m still not sure how I feel about it, but I give it credit for being ambitious and trying something bold and new)ġ6.) Battleground (this was fun, and had a very intriguing story line. But, I think it got a little too silly at the end)ġ7.) The Lawnmower Man (this story seems to be very polarizing, and it makes sense why. It was very atmospheric and interesting, but the characters were annoying and it left me wanting more)ġ9.) Trucks (this story was very suspenseful and I enjoyed it starting in medias res, but it was a little too pulpy for my taste)ġ8.) The Mangler (this was also a little too pulpy for me, but I did really enjoy the gore that was definitely very effective.

The series, based on the first book in Jenny Han’s best-selling Y.A. Prime Video’s new series, The Summer I Turned Pretty, meets this seasonal all-ages tilt toward romanticism with all the satisfying ease of a shimmering open pool. The Summer Fantasy Industrial Complex is predicated on that yawning gap between what we think the months between June and August are supposed to be like-based on pop culture, our cooler friends’ Instagram Stories, cherry-picked childhood memories-and how the season actually unspools in our real, painfully un-soundtracked lives. ![]() ![]() ![]() The four friends who find her corpse are expectedly traumatized – but three years later, any semblance of recovery is irreparably destroyed when Emily’s mother invites the quartet for tea and fancy cakes, only to threaten the girls: find Emily’s murderer before the 15-year-statute of limitations or risk revenge – “I’ll make you suffer far worse than Emily ever did.” Twelve years pass, the 15-year expiry looms, and the girls – now young women – reveal the horrifying penance they’ve each performed.įrom nightmare to nightmare, narrator Karissa Vacker aptly retains tight control throughout.

Marlene Kelly is the matriarch of the large family and has a penchant for collecting “strays” as her sons tease her endlessly over. They’re loyal, hard working, fiercely competitive and family is the most important thing in their lives. For me, it was the perfect place to base the stories.

Stone angels stood guard in suspended flight at strategic vantage points, lest some minion of Satan come flying around a corner gaining access to human vulnerability down on the ground below. The structures looked to be frozen in acts of great bounding movement, like someone had hit the pause button as these limestone titans leaped in battle or journey, with great stakes at play.

Gothic architecture rose-and that is a key verb in this style-to prominence in the late Middle Ages. For Victor Hugo was in thrall to Gothic architecture, the way a self-described geek might be headlong into anime now.
