I CANNOT EXPRESS HOW IMPORTANT THIS BOOK AND TV SERIES WAS FOR ME. One of the Instagram accounts I follow that is an integral part of the body positive movement posted about this show and how she had never related more to a character as she did Plum. Luckily the series had just started and
Hello everyone! I know we are already a few weeks in, but I haven’t been able to bring myself to post. Since I feel this is a forum that is safe and understanding, I will share that I have had a recent incident with the library. Yes, the library. I’m sure this will be amusing
