2.) HURRY UP AND WAIT by STATE CHAMPS

3.) EYES CLOSED by HALSEY

CINEMATOGRAPHY

The 100, what have you done to me?! I went through some ups and downs with the last 3-4 episodes, but that season finale .... duuuuude. I'm still processing, tbh.
And honestly, at this point I'm just too invested in Riverdale to drop it already... which is the only reason why I'm even sticking around. As soon as Archieronnie are over I will be gone, goodbye.
Jane the Virgin has been feeding me so, so well... I can't believe I got this lucky, I really didn't think they'd be giving us this much (and this good) of Jafael already but ... here we are.... I'm ready, bruh.
Then there's Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., which also came to a close this month... That's five shows. Dang. Anyway, I thought the finale was a bit underwhelming tbqh, and I'm so mad that we have to wait so long to know what happens next just because of this stupid royal Inhumans show that nobody cares about anyway. However, I am really excited to see in what ridiculous capacity the writers will bring back Brett in season 5 so he can single-handedly save the show again.
The fifth show that ended this month was Brooklyn Nine-Nine by the way, and, as expected, I loved every second of it. Honestly the only show that treats me right, god bless. So happy it was renewed as well.
I also watched Dear White People when I went home for the weekend, and it was sooooo good, let me tell you. Y'all need to get on this, stat.
Then, I started watching The Secret Circle as well as Quantico, but I'm not quite caught up yet. Honestly, Shelley Hennig is the only reason I'm watching the former and Priyanka Chopra the latter. And so far, I'm not blown away yet. Obviously, TSC is far, far worse than Quantico and I'm not sure I'll ever finish that (I definitely do want to get caught up on Quantico, though), but we'll see.
Next up, I started watching American Gods because I gotta support my mans Ricky Whittle. Honestly, I still have absolutely no fucking idea what this show is even about, but it's funny and weird and I'm ... kinda into it? Still trying to make up my mind...
Pretty Little Liars has also been going on on the side, but eh. Apparently Ashley Benson spoiled in an interview that Spoby aren't going to be endgame which is when I lost all interest in this show tbh.

Looking at this segment, on top of all the countless fanfics I read this month, it's really not that hard to see why I only read six books...
