Before I begin, yes, I have read the book, not once, but twice. And I understand with adaptations that changes will be made. If this had been a movie or had less episodes, there definitely would have been less problems. The idea to make this thirteen hour long episodes may have seemed brilliant but when you figure out that making an episode longer than it takes to read the chapter it is based on, it really loses its shine. And that's why this show fails. Not just as an adaptation, but as a series in general. First off, there is way, WAY too much filler and padding material here. The book took place in a single night, the show takes place over a week and is filled with pointless subplots which dragged the overall plot. Second, the acting is horrendous, but I think that has more to do with the writing. None of the characters are interesting or likable. Season 2 was the final nail in the coffin. Why do these streaming websites insist on making sequels to books that had none or don't need them?

This show is horrendous and needs to end and be forgotten about.
