Heated Rivalry has taken over my life 🙂↕️🙂↕️ and I feel like the one direction edits to them are the ones that are truly keeping me alive lol wishing you the best 2026!! 🫶🏼🫶🏼
i was lamenting the other day that i was never in the 1D fandom :( i think i would've been such a good directioner (??)!! hopefully it counts that I ferally love Harry?
omg honestly if I can say that 18 (I have loved you since we were 18 / long before we both thought the same thing) and if I could fly (I’m missing half of me / when we’re apart) somehow fit georgia and eli then I can say you’re an honorary directioner 😌
(but we also do love harry, fine line -song- honestly changed my life)
Happy Belated birthday and Happy New Year! I hope the new year brings peace and joy and purpose!
I spent my holiday break rereading my favorite books since I had some free time, and both of yours are at the top of my list (I recommend them to everyone!) You write angst and longing and emotional vulnerability like no one else. The passion, the pain, the tenderness - it’s heartbreaking in the best way! You write that those small moments and tiny details are hard to convey, but in my personal opinion, you are the master.
Heated Rivalry has been a delightful surprise that has helped me get through a particularly difficult and stressful month; I've treated every episode drop as a special treat to be enjoyed on Fridays when I'm done with work for the week!
Ah, so thrilled to see you love Heated Rivalry too! The chemistry between the actors, the directing and writing, the friendships and the emotional vulnerability and casual affection and everything is just exquisite. Protect Ilya/Shane at all costs! You're right that the smallest moments, the looks, the details - that's what makes it art and so grounded and so addictive. Your writing is also so good at conveying so much with the smallest details, glances, easter eggs. So glad to see a note from you for the end of the year, and I hope that everything that made 2025 special and positive for you, continues into the next year and even greater. Best holiday wishes!
I love your words and your existence and your brave heart and your beautifully soft soul. I hope this new year is everything you could ever want it to be and beyond your wildest dreams and more 🫶🏻
the ornament 🥹😭 happy belated birthday queen!! thank YOU for this little piece of you you give us. happiest of holidays to you and yours 🫶🏼 love you sm!!!
Happy belated birthday, love !!! Hoping next year treats you much better and you’re able to enjoy life as it goes. Will always be sat for a newsletter from you! Happy holidays, here’s to a wonderful and restful holiday season🤍
the really bonkers thing is i haven't watched the last two episodes. i ALWAYS do this—i can't accept something is over so i avoid finishing it 😭 i wouldn't have watched the last ep of Stranger Things if it weren't for my son!
I totally get this! But we’re getting a season 2 which means it’s not really over! The last two episodes are amazing and you need to watch so we can obsess over the cottage together 😂
Happy belated birthday! Always happy to see you in my inbox. I think I’ve been having the kind of year you had last year, right down to wondering if I’ve been cursed, but it helps to see you come out of yours. I hope 2026 is even better!

That is such a special ornament! I might have to make one with my grandma's handwriting for next year.
it was such a wonderful addition to my tree! Emma made two, so I gifted the other one to my mom and she's finding a place to keep it up all year 🥹
Happy belated birthday, Jess!
thank you, friend!
😘
Happy belated bday! I’m currently watching heated rivalry — wanted to read the book first— and wow. I get why everyone is so feral.
With so many of my beloved romance novels announcing adapts to the screen, HR, makes it clear the magic of books can be brought to the screen.
Here’s to a magical ‘26!
crossing my fingers that we get more (and more and more) adaptations that are so devoted to the source material!
