a/n:
i can't listen to barracuda without picturing the scene from shrek 3 where all of the fairy tale characters are revolting against prince charming. it's almost embarrassing how much of my life revolves around shrek.
also laura is a HUGE blondie fan and honestly... same. her music is so good
i tried to make all of the songs from her playlist from 1983 or earlier, but there are 3 from later in the 80s because they fit too well for me to exclude them, so sorry about that. i truly think that the songs i chose for very well for laura's mindset (in general and also about nancy) and it makes me happy!!
+ i really can't thank you guys enough for almost 1k reads already from just an introductory chapter ALONE. that's absolutely insane and i can't thank you guys enough for the overwhelming support you've given me on this book so far!!
