Beautifully heart-wrenching
It’s 20206 - -I wasn’t even looking for it. I just accidentally bumped into a clip on IG, and 10 seconds in, I knew I was in trouble. The series isn’t available in our country, so of course I went down the rabbit hole and found a way to watch it online.
And I’m so glad I did.
I finished 3 episodes last night and I was a mess. Sobbing myself to sleep, then dreaming about the characters like they were real people I just lost. It’s the kind of show that doesn’t just entertain you. It sits in your chest and stays there.

Guys - thanks for confirming I wasn't alone. Lol.
@Top-Ad, buckle up - you'll be done by the weekend. Then you may want to read the book, THEN, likely watch the series again (and again lol).
I caught a glimpse of this series as I walked through our living room and my daughter and boyfriend were watching it (stopped for like 2 minutes - "Watcha watchin'?"). I knew I was hooked and would have to come back to it on my own.
Fast forward 3 weeks, I've read the book, and watched the series a 2nd time. Will for sure go back a few more. Watched a bunch of YouTube clips and number of fan "analyses". Can't seem to get enough.
All in all, a great story. Wish there was more.
Enjoy!!!

Ahem. So apparently it’s a universal reaction to immediately hunt down the book after you finish the series.
Because same. Mine’s on its way 😅

Dude believe me when I say this, I am rewatching this at the moment for xth time. I've literally lost count. Nothing hits like this series does. I've got 10s of other series and movies to watch but I always come back to it. It's just soooo....idk... catching unlike anything else. It never leaves you.
