Well well.
Seems my last post has the Bethylers up in a rile. 🤣
Sorry not sorry. If you want to be anonymous in my asks saying Carol looks like Daryl's mom well you can just keep on. Because it's funny. And I have all the laughs 😂
I'm sorry you aren't getting your delusional ship back. But your ageism doesn't phase me.
Michonne is Comic-Andrea
So while even the lasting person on earth realized that Sasha gets the death of Comic Holly, there are still people thinking that Beth is the adaptation of Comic-Andrea. Listen, Beth and Comic-Andrea have these things in common: -blonde -scars on the face. That's it. After the shitfest that forever will be known as "Season3" TPTB had to "re-create" comic Andrea. Comic-Andrea had a relationship with Dale. This part was adapted to Sasha(That's why Bob was introduced). Andrea is the sniper of the group(in the show it's Sasha and Michonne is learning) In the Comics Andrea is with Rick, the new mother to Carl. This is adapted to Michonne. Comic-Andrea has scars, caused by Alex way back in the prison. The scars were adapted to Beth. That's all. Being blonde and having scars are the only things they have in common.
Why I care so much? Because the big Blogs like BGWP and BGIHU ARE in fact hurting people(sending death wishes to people who are against Team Delusional, while those two are promoting racism, pedophilia, sexism, fascism, homophobia etc) THAT is why I care

Title-Beth Is Dead
Author-Katie Bernet
Year of Publication-2026
Summary-Beth March is dead on a snowy hill on New Year’s Day. Ever since her father published a fictional account of his daughters titled Little Women the sisters Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy have been dealing with the backlash on their portrayals and if Mr. March was taking advantage of them. Depending on which sister you ask he was or he wasn’t. But now Meg, Jo, and Amy are attempting to work together to find out what happened to Beth. Expect their own secrets and aspirations are getting in the way. Meg has been writing her best friend’s college papers while Jo wants to be a famous author like her father and Amy needs the money set aside for Beth’s musical education for her own art program. The finger pointing also extends to Meg’s best friend Sallie who thinks Beth found out about their partnership, to Meg’s ex-boyfriend John who was Beth’s piano teacher, and to Fred Vaughn the artist Amy admires and who has a taste for underage girls. And thanks to a stunt Jo pulled not long ago to get more followers the police are looking even harder at the sisters. But Meg, Jo, and Amy know it wasn’t one of them who killed Beth. It was someone she thought she could trust. Someone who looks beyond how she was portrayed in Little Women and thinks she is more than that.
Pros-A retelling of Little Women that goes off in a totally different direction than the original. Splitting the narration. The characters also aren’t copy and paste versions of the originals. Using the original Little Women book in a different capacity. Addresses the issue of the public’s inability to tell the difference between a fictional character and their real life counterparts whether it be an actor or real life inspiration.
Cons-The character’s (particularly Jo and Amy) worst traits are exacerbated. Besides Laurie and John the male characters were trash.
Overall Rating-4.5/5
Rating: 2/5
Book Blurb:
Beth March’s sisters will stop at nothing to track down her killer—until they begin to suspect each other—in this “brilliantly snappy…electrifying” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) debut thriller that’s also a bold, contemporary reimagining of the beloved classic Little Women.
When Beth March is found dead in the woods on New Year’s Day, her sisters vow to uncover her murderer.
Suspects abound. There’s the neighbor who has feelings for not one but two of the girls. Meg’s manipulative best friend. Amy’s flirtatious mentor. And Beth’s lionhearted first love. But it doesn’t take the surviving sisters much digging to uncover motives each one of the March girls had for doing the unthinkable.
Jo, an aspiring author with a huge following on social media, would do anything to hook readers. Would she kill her sister for the story? Amy dreams of studying art in Europe, but she’ll need money from her aunt—money that’s always been earmarked for Beth. And Meg wouldn’t dream of hurting her sister…but her boyfriend might have, and she’ll protect him at all costs.
Despite the growing suspicion within the family, it’s hard to know for sure if the crime was committed by someone close to home. After all, the March sisters were dragged into the spotlight months ago when their father published a controversial bestseller about his own daughters. Beth could have been killed by anyone.
Beth’s perspective told in flashback unfolds next to Meg, Jo, and Amy’s increasingly fraught investigation as the tragedy threatens to rip the Marches apart.
Review:
Little Women but make it a murder mystery! Beth March is dead and now her sisters have to solve her murder, unraveling their own relationships with one another, the secrets in their parent's lives, and the fact that the killer is closer to them than they realize. This felt like if the writers of Pretty Little Liars adapted Little Women into a modern day movie or something. I hate to say this but the fact that Jo was my least favorite in this broke my heart. I adore Jo in the original work and thought she'd be my favorite in this but surprisingly it was Meg. I couldn't stand Amy at all. The mystery was a slow burn and the whole "investigation" didn't really even feel like one. You'd think that if your sister was murdered you'd all come together to solve it... but it definitely wasn't the case with these sisters. It's definitely a unique take on Little Women, but it just was a bit of a miss for my personally.

I'll be real, I was not expecting to like Beth Is Dead. I was very happy to be proven wrong. This is a very interesting contemporary take on Little Women, meant to challenge our view of the characters after decades of weathering.
