i still need to read this book. a few of my students are obsessed with her stuff (and emily henry) and lbr, maybe it'll help me Understand~ them more

I always find it weird to have anyone but the author sign a book.

[trekkiepetrelli]

it's such a weird request, esp when casting hasn't been announced, but yeah no one needs to be signing a book except the author

I remember when people were bringing HP books to "How To Succeed" on Broadway for fucking DARREN CRISS to sign because of AVPM. Like, I could almost see people asking Radcliffe/Grint/Watson to do so (before Rowling got visibly shitty) but DARREN?

I mean she's not latina
What was she ever an option?

[emmanium]

She's been fancast a lot as Celia, not Evelyn, afaik.

of course she isn’t lol, she was never going to. the stans of this book need to prepare themselves for this adaptation to be bad.

I think it might make for a pretty good film/tv adaptation actually. The book isn’t very deep or complex and with decent acting and pretty dresses it could be a very enjoyable watch. As long as they don’t try to make it serious or awards baity

I’m not either, Jessica
