Perks was an exceptional adaptation. Perfect casting, exceptional soundtracks. Anytime the author of the source material is directly involved with the production of an adaptation, it makes me relieved knowing we’re not just going to get a wish.com version of the story.

Cora, you should! Just start by boosting the speed a little bit and then you can find a pace that you feel comfortable with. I just find most of the time 1x speed makes it a boring read and I’m less likely to listen for longer periods of time.

Also I guess I forgot to state what I’m reading! Currently I’m reading This City Beautiful by Aiden Polydoros - queer, Jewish, 1890s World’s Fair Chicago murder mystery paranormal possession. Seems like a lot, but very interesting! I’m like halfway through the book now.
