I haven't watched too much this month but here ya go:

Watch Atypical. It's honestly so good and very eyeopening to what it might be like for people with high-functioning autism (yes, I know that not everyone on the spectrum is the same, but this was very realistic and well done)

I'm currently watching Reign, which is based on Mary Queen of Scots, which is interesting

I finished Riverdale season 3! AHHH I really want season 4, just so I can understand this mess omg

I watched Avengers: Endgame and cried.

I have to see The Sun is Also a Star, Aladdin, Toy Story 4, and Spiderman: Far from Home!

GOODBYE MAY
