🍢 Discussion Post 🎆

Sorry that it's a week late!

I've just finished reading "One Summer in Miami".

It's a bit longer than a typical romance novel, but I found it well written and quite engaging.  If you are a reader, and you're looking for an enjoyable GL rom-com novel, this give this one a go.

I've just written my first ever review on MDL. It is for the Korean Lesbian dating show "To Get Her".

If you are willing, please check out my review and give me a "YES" to the "Was this review helpful to you?" question at the bottom of my review.

Here's the link

Thank you.

I haven’t watched too many GLs so far but I’m still trying to watch more so I can find the ones that are best for me. it still takes me time to get through them as I’m watching lots of non GL stuff as well.

i finished 23.5 and Pluto. I had to take a break during the third act of both of these, because I got a bit bored or annoyed. 23.5 was sweet and I liked Milk a lot but it could have used a bit more umph. More tension or something? Pluto was good and Namtan was 🔥🔥🔥 but I didn’t like the third act twist. I also watched season one of Blank. I started it last year but i couldn’t stand the way Yoko acted ridiculously cute to make herself seem young. So I stopped after the first three episodes. But I went back and finished and she had stopped that act so I could focus more on the story. And I thought it was great. And I loved Faye. So I will watch s2/the second half of that. Then I will try one of the suggestions for GLs with butch or more masculine characters. while I liked these shows (and Us) I have to say I’m still waiting for a couple that is totally smoking together. Namtan and Film had one scene that felt that way to me but not all of their intimate scenes felt believable. one of my favorite scenes was when Namtan was in the bath and Film reaches her hand in. It doesn’t end up being much but Namtan’s reaction was so wonderful. 

i Am trying to keep track of all the suggestions and add them to my watch list. I know there are a lot but I’m still happy to get them.
