QUALITYYYY ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ One of the best comedies I’ve seen in a longgg while and every character was giving it everything they got! despite naysayers, it didn’t have the whole movie in the trailer like it had me on the edge of my seat multiple timesss

Imma need some of you to think about thriving out of spite. I had big plans for 2025 and I’m definitely not gonna pre-derail them for likes of Elin and Tromp. I’m getting more involved. Loving harder. Writing hornier. Having more fun. I’m gonna be so kind to my neighbors, bitch.

Okay. If I did this correctly, this link will take you some of Black BookTok’s BEST and BRIGHTEST! I’ll continue to add more as I find them and/or as they join. 💛 #BlackBooksSky go.bsky.app/A6micpn
