It's winter. You're curled up with your boo thing on the couch watching sappy movies on your "because you watched The Notebook" tab on your Netflix account. It's 27 degrees out, and you're falling for your bae faster than the snow outside, wondering how you could go a day without them.
But as the days have continued, you realize it's inevitable. You've watched all the Rom-Coms you possibly can and you're ready for something more realistic, just like your reality check when your winter boo broke your heart. Yes, now it's 102 degrees outside and you can't really tell if its sweat dripping down your face, or your tears.
If this sounds like you, welcome to the club. So, here's my HUGE shout-out to Netflix for getting me through this sticky summer with these series I can totally fall for.
1. "Riverdale"

After his father's tragic "accident" the two move to an old motel and encounter anything but normal occurrences for such a quiet and small town. You will never know what is real, who is good and what's coming next in Bate's motel. (Side note: it starts off slow, but gets much better, you won't want to stop watching!)
