Initially, I was reluctant to give this series a try. I don't like women tearing each other down for no reason, and I was afraid it might go in that direction. But after a while I started watching for the cast, and honestly, I don't regret it. The story is messy in the best ways, all characters are flawed yet relatable, and the cast is phenomenal.

The plot revolves around five close friends and a secret they've shared for a long time. When a tape is leaked at a wedding, everything comes crashing down and the group is confronted with decisions they made years, ultimately leading to the question: “Did we create the demons that haunt us?” What seems like a premise reminiscent of Pretty Little Liars (and that's also how I'm trying to sell the series to my friends) actually goes way deeper. And along the way, the series tries to tackle some serious and possibly triggering topics, mostly being thoughtful about it, but some plot points could've used more exploration.

The same can be said for some characters, I suppose. While I love all of them deeply, especially for their flaws and the very human mistakes they make throughout the series, I would've loved to get to know some of them better. I can't say much without spoiling some plot points (and avoiding spoilers is crucial for this show, believe me), but of the main five, some got more background than others. Which is a shame, because I loved them so damn much. I mean, they're also kind of terrible, but I seriously rooted for them.

So, without spoiling any of the plot twists and reveals: If you're intrigued by the premise or just the queer (side) characters, give the series a try. I'd definitely recommend it!
