    I do think that some of the songs are about him but not as clear cut. I saw something about some of the songs being more general and about her feelings and experiences and not just on her relationships - i think its called a composite sketch. I could be completely wrong but thats just how i've understood it all 😅what are your favourite songs? mine from the standard album is ' who's afraid of little old me?' and the double album 'i hate it here' 'the prophecy' and 'the alchemy' i cant pick!!

    So close to 20k you go girl!! Do you plan on reading Funny Story? If so, cant wait to hear your thoughts. Also about TTPD, i am in the majority that thinks most are about Matty Healy (i am shamefully into her life) but Joe is also sprinkled into the narrative of the stories.

      and i literally finished funny story a few days ago and LOOOVED it!! 4.75🌟
      the more i’ve listened to the album and read more theories the more i see its mostly about matty!! think its because i didn’t have much of an understanding of their relationship before the album came out so i was confused!!

    If you like mixed media in books you should totally read a good girls guide to murder which is a mystery and illumine which is a sci-fi. Both do a fantastic job with mixed media and if you haven’t read them I think you’d like them!

    • @bookswithellen
      @bookswithellen  Před 29 dny

      @@bookswithellen yea I am super excited for the AGGGTM show. I read that series and loved it! I haven’t read illumine yet but I own it and want to. If you want some other mixed media books that you may not have read I would read Once and Future Witches and The Ten Thousand Doors of January by Alix E. Harrow. Also the loneliest girl in the universe by Lauren James, Genuine Fraud by E. Lockhart, and warcross by Marie Lu.
