Weekend/Media Recap

This past week I’ve consumed a lot of things which is unusual for me. I’m normally a one media at a time type girl.

The characters are all coming from different places, but I enjoyed the themes of wanting something different for the future. Overall, this was grand and I want to watch more. Luckily there is a season two!
