my top 5’s 📚🎥📀
I absolutely adore all types of media but these ones share a special place in my heart. A lot of these i love on the same level but there are some that are my absolute favorites and they are as follows:
Song 🎧
-> Right Now by Gracie Abrams
- This song is so beautiful the instrumental is by far my favorite part of it and the lyrics make me feel both nostalgic and sad.
Films 🎥
-> Love Rosie
- this film is just so peak. If there was only one movie i could watch for the rest of my life it would be this one. Both actors in this do such an amazing job at making you root for their relationship even when both of them are being quite annoying.
Shows 🫶
-> Ted Lasso
- My dad made me watch this show and at first i had absolutely no interest in a sports centered show, but the heart and care that is put into every single character, plot line and joke is spectacular. It is so funny, but also heartwarming, endearing and entertaining. This is definitely my favorite thing on this whole list
Albums 🎤
-> Stick Season (We’ll all be here forever)
- This album has zero skips on it. Noah Kahan is such an exceptional song writer and he has a talent for making every song so personal but relatable. His music is the perfect mix of folk, country and indie. Your needs, my needs is my favorite from the album.
Books 📚
-> Six of Crows
- Loving books has been my whole personality for so long and this book started it all. I read it during covid after watching the shadow and bone show on netflix and I have never flown through a book so fast. Every character is so lovable but also pretty morally gray and the found family in this is unforgettable. I loved the second book just as much and i really hope she writes a third.
