I have not even finished The Secret History, but I'm already obsessed with it. The cult has gotten to me too!
Every moment I feel like I've lived with these characters... And I saw a Tiktok exploring the real Bennington College (which inspired Hampden) and somehow it was like I'd already seen it all.
Seriously, what dark magic is in this book?
The Tormented

I need to get back to Harriet. I miss her ๐ฅน
Currently it's The Little Friend by Donna Tartt
I've been thinking about it an unhealthy amount... But like we have sooo much dark, gritty sci-fi now. Black Mirror just came out with another season last week that shows us the darkest sides of the future. Paid advertising in medicine etc etc.
Why shouldn't RTD let an alien twink hoover up incels with a retro-future Roomba? Or fight a fifty foot fifties cartoon character. It's a universe where literally anything can happen and I think that's awesome.
It's the goofiness that sets Who apart and a lot of people forgot that after Moffat's run.
I'd be okay with it if she was just here for the vibes tbh. This is totally what I'd be like if my neighbour was abducted one day.
I don't know why Mrs Flood just likes to live next door to companions and (awkardly, forcably) wish them well. But honestly kinda dope of her
Maybe she isn't actually anything in the story but just an ever present creature that's just here now cause it's fun
YESSSS!
you have GOT to remember when watching the new doctor who that the question is not is this good. doctor who is only ever actually 'good' once a season at most. THE ONLY QUESTION IS is it fun, camp, and has aliens. also remember the worst doctor who showrunner is always the current doctor who showrunner. now go watch the new episodes as god intended like you're ten years old and still remember how to experience joy and whimsy.
Hear me out: The Greek Class as Tarot Cards. Bunny was perfect for The Hanged Man, sacrifice and stagnation are his whole deal.
Can you guess what Henry will be ๐คญ
To be fair, they are students. I can attest to the accuracy of the representation.
Love how everyone in The Secret History is always either drunk or high. Or asleep.
