Today I'm reviewing the new Prime Video release, The Idea of You, the movie adaptation of the book by the same name. I'm sharing my thoughts followed by a 2019 book chat where Classy and I discussed the book. It's one of our first Buddy Read Chats, so far back that it was before we decided to focus on mystery and thrillers and started recording videos! It's a true throwback treat! The movie review is spoiler-free, but the book chat is FULL of spoilers (as usual). I liked the adaptation a lot more than the book! Which surprised me because that rarely happens. Did you watch the movie and/or read the book? Please share what you thought of it!

In this episode, Tamara and Casey discuss the final book in the Serpent and Dove trilogy, 'Gods and Monsters' by Shelby Mahurin. They share their disappointment with the book and critique the author's writing style and character development. The episode concludes with a critique of the final battle scene and the unrealistic plan of the characters. The conversation methodically identifies the principal themes of the book, including the lack of consequences, unrealistic recovery, inconsequential death, confusing epilogue, change in Reed's behavior, desire for spicier scenes, mislabeling of books, disappointment with the series, and narration issues.
