Status Updates From The Beloved Dearly

For years, I completely mixed up this book and Pet Sematary. Like, I know they’re completely different, but the pet graveyard situation really crossed some wires in my brain and I could not keep them apart idek

I love how Swimming Poll and Ernie set boundaries for each other.

If I were a teacher, I’d have private intervention with Ernie first, let him get his stress out and then talk to Swimming Pool 🏊.

Swimming Pool is so sweet, and Ernie is funny but super sassy 💁🏻‍♀️

Ugh, Finny and Fanny are like the emo 🖤 Karen’s of the book 😱

Also “everyone was Jeremy’s new best friend.” 🥰 justice for Jeremy! 🦎 🧺

I love the funny voice actors; they have the best deliveries of the lines; like in a 2000’s comedy.

Swimming Pool is my favorite, 🤩 but I also relate to Dusty a lot. “He liked his quiet space and his own, dusty corner.”
