-ʚɞ : it’s starting to feel like it happened to someone else those three years we spent at the academy now all I see is a blank page and one giant question mark because after all who am i ? who is anyone without a dream ?
This wasn’t really what i expected to close this amazing series, but i think i’m still with this ending. This movie was really good and well paced, it didn’t like have these huge gaps, except when tara and ben were at miss rain’s house. I don’t really understand how long they were there. Talking about Benstara i have to admit that i liked them more than tara and christian, cause like christian was such a complex character who didn’t know how to choose. So Benstara stan over here. It should’ve ended with tara&ben, kat&christian and abigail&sammy.
There was this huge hole in the movie, a sammy shaped hole :(

Tara needs to stop being a whiny bitch considering that 3/4 of this movie is her crying or looking like she is about to cry - but I love the VIBES.
