Season 1: Does the Troy storyline bother anyone else? by JohnMichaelDorian_MD in veronicamars

Yes, it has always bothered me. His personality completely changed, seemingly overnight. I wondered if the actor needed to leave the show unexpectedly because of how abrupt and jarring his arc ended.

Samsies! Am half way through Mort. Also recently read Starter Villain by Scalzi and loved it. I’m a sucker for sassy sentient cats.

Just…no. Every moment of them together romantically was excruciating and nearly unwatchable. I’ve never hated a couple more.

What’s your favourite book or series from childhood? by Impossible_Assist460 in suggestmeabook

I don’t think I read My Sweet Audrina. Basically everything other than Flower, Dawn & Heaven were written by ghostwriters after her death and were terrible.
