Did it start a little slow? Yes, as does all shows that are starting to tell a story. I really enjoyed it, it was better than the negative reviews (believe the GOOD reviews). I found it mixed up the story by treading on the insecurities of high school, going "home" after you have been away and yet facing some of those same fears when you came back home, never really getting over them. Haven't we ALL had something we experienced growing up, whether it was people at high school, an experience in town that made us want to just keep it hidden away? What I didn't
like was the odd ending, just seemed to stop in its tracks. But way better ending than the usual, "Girl meets girl, girl falls for girl and one girl leaves girl for a guy" ending that so many of these stories have. But I felt the leads had chemistry made it seem like a
more realistic connection they had. All in all I'm glad I watched it. What I really found amazing was that the lead actress acted in it, wrote it AND directed it! That is some talent, I hope she keeps it up, can't find much from her.
