text book is seriously one of her best songs, for some reason it just CLICKED last night when i listened through the album... it's excellence!

i'm going to keep it very real... this may be my least favorite ldr album... at least for now... but i still want to see the album succeed & do well, get great reviews, etc. especially since i can tell my opinion is certainly the minority

blue banisters might be my current least-favorite i think a major reason why is the previously-leaked tracks, they seriously don't fit the album, she should've completely reworked them instead of using their 8-year-old demos

i'm honestly too lazy to do a full-fledged review so i'll just rate each track & share a few key thoughts... text book - 9/10 blue banisters - 8/10 arcadia - 7.5/10 the trio - 7/10 black bathing suit - 10/10 if you lie down with me - 6.5/10 beautiful - 6/10 violets for roses - 6.5/10 dealer - 7/10 thunder - 6.5/10 wildflower wildfire - 10/10 nectar of the gods - 7/10 living legend - 8/10 cherry blossom - 8/10 sweet carolina - 6.5/10 i'm still not a huge fan of iyldwm, beautiful, & violets for roses, i just can't seem to really "click" with them, iyldwm may just be a matter of warming up to it more, but beautiful & violets for roses don't interest me at all, i don't find anything intriguing or interesting about them, they are pretty, nice songs, but that's really it, pleasant, pretty piano ballads, i just don't click with them also, not a fan of the reworked thunder, the instrumentals feel out of place, and maybe it's because i'm used to the 2017 version, but the piano & acoustic guitar just don't feel like they fully "fit" the track, also some of the vocals, especially near the second half of the track sound really muffled & strange, i think my last major issue is simply the fact that she included nectar, living legend, & cherry as they were, i really think she would of benefitted from reworking them, at least thunder sounds different, but i didn't really feel anything about nectar, cherry, or living legend being here, i do agree that this album feels more like a collection of songs/playlist rather than an album, i feel like i'm the only person who's not really fully feeling this, but it seems like everybody else is, which i think is amazing & great! i will say that black bathing suit & wfwf are absolutely incredible, i'm so glad we have them <3
