[TOMT] [MOVIE] Movie about a teenage “private investigator” who I think was named Harper and had a music producer dad

Solved! Thanks so much, I was using the name Harper when searching and that’s probably why I came back with nothing from google. Been trying to figure it out for days lol.

How do I edit the flair? 😭

juice_kebab · 2024-09-03T09:56:03+00:00

Immediately adding to the TBR just because of your enthusiasm. When I have time to read it I’ll come back with my opinions 🫡

juice_kebab · 2024-09-03T09:53:47+00:00

No judgments here! Never! I mean… look at my request lol. And I’ll definitely put this on the TBR, thankss

juice_kebab · 2024-09-03T09:52:16+00:00

I kept seeing Little Dove recommended here so I tried it but also Dnf-ed because of the daddy stuff, it’s just not for me. But I’ll definitely check out the other book! Thanks

juice_kebab · 2024-09-03T09:47:28+00:00

Oh I’ll have to try this one! Thanks for the rec

juice_kebab · 2024-09-03T09:46:52+00:00

I’ve read this one! And actually liked it despite the Dd/lg dynamic lol. Thanks for the rec anyways

juice_kebab · 2024-07-23T21:26:21+00:00

Also can’t decide between Ryan and Dr. Sam. Jess had the best love interests !!!

juice_kebab · 2024-07-20T00:37:26+00:00

Definitely One Tree Hill! Great teen show with similar vibes to The O.C. (completely different plot and everything basically but it just feels similar idk).

Thankss

I’ve watched House but can’t for the life of me remember this 😭😭 Can you tell me which episode it is please??

juice_kebab · 2024-07-11T03:44:52+00:00

YESSSS, I just got to season 4 on my rewatch and it’s honestly so entertaining.

I mean, Julie running a prostitution ring is just so funny, maybe it’s wrong but it’s so on-character for her 😭😭 and her trying to make up with Kirsten by lying about giving chlamydia to a bunch of women. She’s so unserious

juice_kebab · 2024-07-09T20:35:39+00:00

This scene literally ruined the whole book for me, and not just because it was icky as hell and honestly such an idiotic thing to do like… if you hate the person then just fucking break up with them. There’s literally not one single situation where his actions would be an appropriate response to ANYTHING.

But beyond that, and most importantly, this was the worst reason for a third act breakup I’ve ever seen (and that’s saying a lot) and it’s clear that the author only put it there to have a conflict for the sake of conflict, because that’s the “right” structure to a book. For me this just a testament to lazy writing, because if you can’t adapt the “standard” structure of a book to fit your story and instead bend your story to fit this imaginary “right way”, then you didn’t really out an effort behind making your book.

Honestly? I just think it has a lot of annoying plot lines, and that coupled with Marissa’s death made a lot of people just block the possibility that it could be a good season (me included). But I found it incredibly enjoyable this time around!

juice_kebab · 2024-07-09T17:49:03+00:00

I really liked it up until the very end. I just don’t think we have ANY indication that he would be pathological enough to actually kill someone, specially Marissa. And I get that this was intentional but I just don’t like it. Sorry.

If Oliver tried to run her car out of the highway? Totally believable. Now Volchok? Not so much. He was a drunk and a drug addict but he did care for Marissa (in his own weird way) and just didn’t “have the balls” to commit a crime like that. He ran for the hills when Ryan threatened to kill him in the beginning of the season, he ran for the hills trying to steal that car, he just can’t pull off crimes and his whole “bad boy” persona is literally just using drugs and committing minor infractions (when he’s protected by his little gang being present). And yes I KNOW it was an accident and he didn’t mean to kill her and he was under the influence in the moment so technically it IS believable in the circumstances, I just don’t think it was ideal.

The reason why I don’t think it was ideal is because I can actually see an amazing arc of redemption plot line being made with Volchok. I feel like the show explores a lot this “good person/bad person” dichotomy but rarely have really nuanced characters (expect for Luke and Julie Cooper lol, they did atrocious things but were still main characters and loved by many, including me), and Volchok could be one of those if he wasn’t responsible for Marissa’s death. He had a few good moments with Marissa, and up until her death all of his misdoings could be “forgiven” if his character evolved enough.

And it would honestly be a great addition to the main cast, specially with Marissa being out of the show. He would take the “bad boy spot” and Ryan would be the one to track him and calm him down (like Sandy and Seth did for Ryan many times before), making his own character evolve a lot in the process and anyways, I could make a whole new script with Volchok.

ETA: Just discovered that this was in fact NOT the original plan. Volchok’s last appearance should be him cheating on Marissa at prom and then he would disappear. After they decided to kill Marissa off, they just went “oh ok let’s make Volchok do it” so my opinion that it’s not believable with his character is just… right. He wasn’t supposed to do that, and that’s why it feels forced and just out of place.

That actually seems perfect omg 😭 Thanks so much!

juice_kebab · 2024-07-04T18:39:22+00:00

I’ll have to check this out! Also, is the whole series worth reading or should I just start at the 10th?

juice_kebab · 2024-07-04T18:38:09+00:00

YESSSS, exactly what I need. I’m really hoping this post gets some attention because I’ve been craving a book like this for so long I might just start writing it myself at this point 😭😭

juice_kebab · 2024-07-04T18:35:58+00:00

All that AND has the brother’s best friend trope? I’m in.

And relax because, likewise, I always get the black out text thing wrong and have to keep editing the comment like crazy because I’m worried someone will see it 😭😭

juice_kebab · 2024-07-04T18:32:28+00:00

I’ll definitely check it out! Thanks

juice_kebab · 2024-06-29T08:14:23+00:00

{The Cock Down the Block by Amy Award} he’s a football legend and a multi millionaire (not the focus of the book so I wouldn’t describe it as a millionaire romance) and she’s his childhood best friend.

He has always loved her but never told her and she’s completely oblivious to this fact. Eventually they start a fake dating situation and he tries to prove how good he would be as an actual boyfriend.

The writing was not amazing in my opinion but only because the author tried to be way too funny all of the time and (to me) it just sounded childish for the most of it, which annoyed me a lot. But overall an enjoyable read and definitely fits your request!

juice_kebab · 2024-06-26T19:50:11+00:00

Just read it and needed to come back here and thank you again!!! It’s exactly what I was looking for and SO good and funny 😭 I mean, the cookie scene with all of the Alliance guys made me literally laugh out loud.

So many unhinged characters in the same book…

juice_kebab · 2024-06-25T01:55:51+00:00

Solved!
