Good read, rather different than the tv series.

I really enjoyed this book, I read it before the Netflix series rolled out and I'm glad of it. I found the similarities good but the differences between the two were annoying, I understand why the show didn't follow completely - because of an episode time line, but I found it unrealistic.

I was a little hesitant in reading this at first, after loving the hulu series, but I was very satisfied that it lived up and maybe even surpassed the hype a little. The differences between the two things were noticeable but not ones you would be upset about. I loved the way the main character made you feel what she was feeling, outrage, sadness, relief.
