Honestly, I love Carrie. Carrie was what got me back into reading in high school. But this is better than Carrie for the message it carries. Like is it perfect imo? no but that’s fine. I loved it. I didn’t know if I would because I do love Carrie, but this is not Carrie. This is Maddy and I love Maddy and I hope she’s happy.

The Carrie retelling I didn’t know I needed! I devoured it in a day because I could not put it down.
