I don’t know who April is. Matt Bomer is the diamond of the birthmen!

I … well, the people in my life who love her really don’t read for leisure. So I think the people enamored by her really like that they’re reading and don’t have much to compare her to. This has been my experience too! I don’t know how she became the non-reader’s author. Someone had to fill the void for the twilight/50 shades crowd

Colin Hanks is in one of my favorite "bad" teen movies from the 00s - Get Over It - and he will forever live in a special place in my heart for that reason alone. I’m late but omg I loved this movie lol.

That movie Get Over it gives me a Mandela effect because I swear for a very short period of time it was called Getting Over Allison, but I cannot find any evidence to prove it. Every few years I try to find evidence to support my memory and it never comes to fruition.

nope. is that the one with Mila Jovovich or is it with Sylvester Stallone? This (still) scares the shit out of me because I know someone this happened to IRL. Fortunately they recovered. But my God.

Oh hey it’s Rafael from Jane the Virgin. He’s so sexy. Between him and Blake I’d probably watch that movie just for the eye candy. I haven’t read the book. Yes. He is so hot. So is Blake. The book was fine. The sequel was awful. I will be watching the movie.

Colleen Hoover just writes un-put-down-able books. It isn’t the best writing. But it’s riveting. I love to read, I read for fun all the time, and I digest her books sometimes. They are quick and easy when I need to not brain, and I think that’s fine.

I read the first chapter of the sequel, got to the part where she writes another letter to Ellen, and immediately returned it to the library 😆

The returning CEO has made it very clear that employees from any of the media companies under the conglomerate are not allowed to mention the beatdown this sports head gave to his wife. It all needs to be swept under the rug to keep those dollars flowing.

What is that calendar? No, August. Pass. I thought this too, but then looked at the July and September book ends and realized August was maybe not so bad

Well I know the next movie I’m watching after I finish Bros tonight. Get Over It is weirdly not available to purchase on the Apple Store but it is on Amazon video. So I’ll be spending the $15 to buy it since the last copy I had was a VHS. Worth it though, because I’ll for sure rewatch it a lot. 😂

So instead of, "You're not ugly, just poor" this is, ""You're not old, just poor".

They are quick and easy when I need to not brain, and I think that’s fine. I’m here - I read all the time and sometimes need to mix in some really easy reads like her. I put Elin Hilderbrand and Tara Jenkins Reid in a similar category. That said, sometimes I’m really mad when I’m done bc the story and writing is so awful but I go into it knowing that. I do admit to rolling my eyes when It End With Us or Verity comes up in some book groups I’m in and people are gushing over it saying how good it is. No, it’s not really good, it’s like a soap opera version of a book. They are corny as shit but I enjoy them for what they are.

If you enjoy reading Colleen Hoover and what I said doesn’t apply to you, then it doesn’t apply to you. Like I said, this is what I found in my world. I have no love for someone that made domestic violence a “gray” area. She’s not for me.

Holy shit I didn’t see whose account that was and thought it was Jessica Simpson. It even looks a bit like her, up until the last year or so. Goes to show all of Hollywood just has slightly different variations of a kardashian face.

Notice how Martha omitted fillers from her list of things she hasn't done to her face. 🧐😆
She does have beautiful skin though and has clearly taken care of it for many many years. The combo of good aging genes and money is hard to beat.
