To say I am in my feels when I read or watch Normal People is an understatement. Sally Rooney's content has become an emotional literary drug that I need to consume over and over again. The ending of this TORTURES me, and yet I keep coming back for another hit. You've ruined me, Sally.

y'all already know about me and this. i used this to study how script translates to the screen and what directorial and acting choices can add to a piece beyond the text.
