holiday movies start now apparently

It's after Thanksgiving which means I have begun my holiday movie watching. I think I started with a pretty good one, all things considered, but first a word for the fall one I watched beforehand.


Falling for Vermont was pretty much exactly what you'd expect from the little trailer. ( Exactly what it says on the tin, really. )

Holiday movies begin NOW.


Did I watch this movie entirely to see how much I enjoy Janel Parrish outside the confines of PLL? Yes. Yes, I did. And she remains a goddamn delight, okay? Because the HMN app is absolute garbage (it is), I somehow thought this was a case of Janel's character sliding into a premade family and basically Stepmomming it up. But it is not that and I wish they'd leaned into that a little bit more.
( Tragically dying mom still has fabulous hair. )

Called out of work because the cramps of doom came back. Ugh.
