So I don't think this movie is going to be GOOD but it's historical and spooky and probably gay so we're gonna try it tonight

(Historical horror is one of my favourite horror... tropes? Subgenres? I dunno.)
Also, by the way, any horror youtuber you like will probably have a shudder code so you can get 30 days free. It works even if you've had shudder before as long as you've not used one. I used one from a let's player I watch.

One day I will have a shudder code :P
Technically I have a youtube channel but I only use it to post clips from anne of green gables movies
Which. You could argue the 2016 movie trilogy is a TYPE of horror.
I thought Laura/Lara was always blonde in Carmilla? She has dark hair in this.
(Also they call her Lara? I don't know why - the character is Laura in the original book, right?)
True tho
Her governess thinks Lara being left-handed = devil.

Boy she's gonna be fun when the gay vampire shows up.
Lara has met the gay vampire, I repeat, Lara has met the gay vampire.
1. Why is Carmilla a redhead and Lara a brunette am confused

2. Ah, the historical half-ponytail of history.
They're... sexily hyperventilating?
The governess is giving Lara a "I know the vampire is cute but you shouldn't be gay because it's 1870 something maybe" speech.
(I'm guessing on time period. The book was published in 1872 and I don't thiiiiink the fashions are 1880s but I'm not sure.)
Lara, your blood shouldn't be that colour the second you cut yourself. You might have a clotting issue, hon.
Enough with the bugs please
Lara's wasting away now because she's gay and sad XD
"You won't let me have a cute vampire girlfriend? Fine, I guess I'll just DIE."
Well that was underwhelming.
It wasn't even really vampire-y. It was just "being gay makes you sad and maybe dead".

Like I don't mean this in a "you need Jesus" way but I legit am starting to think some people have replaced worship - whether that's in a church way or paganism or just being really into nature or whatever - with books and reading.

Compare how you react when told someone doesn't like reading to the way some Christian people react when someone says they're an athiest.

They shouldn't be similiar.
Books are not sacred holy objects. Reading is not an inherantly moral and righteous activity.

You do you, but maybe you should like. Chill. A bit.

Okay, are you all ready for the last #LainaReadsAnne chapter for Anne of Avonlea? Chapter thirty is it for this book!

And it's just about wedding time!
#LainaReadsAnne It's the last week of August. Mrs Rachel is moving into Green Gables in a week, and Anne and Gilbert are leaving for Redmond in two weeks.

The Allans are also leaving shortly. Anne feels "a little sadness threading all her excitement and happiness."Aww.
#LainaReadsAnne Mr Harrison says "Changes ain't totally pleasant but they're excellent things" and that two years is about as long as things should stay the same.

He and Emily are getting along well and she has become very good friends with Mrs Rachel, who he still dislikes.

Okay, who's ready for a #LainaReadsAnne thread?

We have just two chapters left and they are my favourite two of the book. The end of this book honestly is just so good. I've read it like four times now.
#LainaReadsAnne Anne spends the next month basically in a blur of activity. Not only does she need to prepare for Redmond, but she's helping to plan Miss Lavendar's wedding! There's a ton to be done, and everyone is very excited.
#LainaReadsAnne Paul is very happy as he already loves Miss Lavendar. He says, "Mrs. Lynde says she thoroughly approves of the match and thinks its likely Miss Lavendar will give up her queer notions and be like other people, now that she’s going to be married."

Okay, #LainaReadsAnne time! Chapter 28 awaits!
#LainaReadsAnne School ends and Anne's pupils miss her before she's even really gone.

Then we get an interesting scene of Mrs Harmon Andrew, Mrs Peter Sloane, and Mrs William Bell discussing Anne's leaving.

I still hate this way of naming people. THEY HAVE FIRST NAMES.
#LainaReadsAnne But you don't see as many scenes without Anne in them, so this is neat.

Mrs Sloane thinks it's a shame Anne's leaving since the kids like her so much, but Mrs Bell i glad for her since she's wanted to go to college so badly.

Okay, are you ready to slam and welcome to the jam?

No, for real, are you ready for chapter twenty-seven of Avonlea for today's #LainaReadsAnne thread? We're nearing the end!!
#LainaReadsAnne This is a chapter featuring a Davy moment where I actually find him kind of hilarious. That might actually be a miracle.
#LainaReadsAnne Anne comes "down to dinner in a new dress of pale green muslin" and it says this is "the first color she had worn since Matthew's death".

The book had only previously mentioned that one "black lawn" dress and then white dresses.

Okay, we have Chapter Twenty-Six of #LainaReadsAnne today!! It's a big one, so grab a snack or a drink. Get your self-care on and all that jazz.
#LainaReadsAnne Thomas Lynde passes away.

In the last chapter, Mrs Rachel had mentioned he'd been doing better the last few days, and that's actually fairly common before someone dies, that they feel a lot better for a short period of time.
#LainaReadsAnne It's not clear, exactly, what Thomas dies from but I kinda get cancer vibes? Just from how slow it was and how nothing really helped.
