How did I forget how amazing this book is?! Bea is WAY better in the book, and the movie has no June at all.
I‘m still entirely in love with them movie and watch it daily, but the book is its own amazing, wonderful, beautiful thing.

bookandbedandtea I feel the same way... the movie is good, and I'll be watching it again!, but the book is amazing! 💜 1y
GingerAntics @bookandbedandtea I have watched the movie at least once every day since I first saw it. I love it, but the book is just even better! 1y
bookandbedandtea @GingerAntics The book (as is typical) is just so much richer with detail. I LOVE the whole Richards outing them/ Raf going rogue- in fact every single thing about Raf- story so I was really bummed the movie didn't have time to cover all that. Plus, as you mentioned, no June and a watered down Bea.🤷♀️ Now I'm sounding like I don't like the movie. I do! I just wish it could have been a 6 episode miniseries. 😉 1y

GingerAntics @bookandbedandtea oh my god Bea is like a dits in the movie. I love her from the book, but there are times I just roll my eyes at her in the movie. “I‘ve broke up with my bf so he won‘t get a broken heart too, my mother doesn‘t give a crap and hasn‘t even been cast for this movie, and I feel like I‘m gong to be alone forever because I walked away to keep grandpa happy.” “At least you won‘t be King!” 🤦🏼♀️ (edited) 1y
GingerAntics @bookandbedandtea I don‘t know who wrote that line, but she looked vaguely uncomfortable saying it (which leads me to believe she was VERY uncomfortable saying it), and that writer should have been fired on the spot! (edited) 1y
bookandbedandtea @GingerAntics That scene makes me cringe! It doesn't make sense, it's out of character for (book) Bea, and I agree that the actress was cringing too. 1y
GingerAntics @bookandbedandtea exactly! I can just imagine this poor actress reading this for the first time. “Really? You want me to say this? Are you sure? So, like my character doesn‘t really give a crap about her brother, his feelings, or his current emotional state? Well, alright then. As long as I know where my character is coming from in this case. 🥃” 1y
