    An Enchantment of Ravens

  2. S1 of #mortel was a satisfying watch. The best thing about it for me was the (I thought) excellent writing and acting developing the relationship between the two main boys, Victor and Sofiane. A lot of other good things to say about it:

    • Gorgeous #cinematography with a clear, relevant visual theme
    • Surprising and (usually) kind twists and turns developing the initially unpleasant characters--very few or no actual villains, despite lots of actions hurting others
    • Tangled webs of lies & conflicting motivations didn't seem contrived
    • Tangled webs, jarring juxtapositions of action and experiences reflected in (IMO) very effective parallel film sequences
    • Excellent musical choices

    IMO the "teenagers" being clearly 20something actors wasn't difficult to swallow.

  3. Just finished HEAVEN [2009] by Mieko #Kawakami. Entitled as #YAFiction but really heavy and explicit stuff. CW explicit psych and phys abuse/mobbing, self destructive behavior/eating disorder, thoughts about drug abuse/suicide in general. Main characters are 14 yo, it is a very good book in my opinion - but as I said, quite hard to digest.

    Will def read more by Kawakami!!
