Loved the gore and cut throat atmosphere that adds a layer of danger throughout.
I think someone was given way too much artistic license with this, there were lots of concentration face cuts, scenes taking through glass, underwater, starting the episode with the end scene etc etc. When that may not have been needed.
One scene was filmed in golden hour or supposedly. The sky was blue but to romanticize the burying of the body the actors/actress were bathed in golden light that, shadows were all wrong and didnt match the lighting.
There were several continuity errors, I dont particularly look out for them but these were quite big.
The reveal if the "whodunnit" could have been orchestrated better and the overall events could have been more intricate. Especially as the death involved several different methods/equipment there was potential that several of the cast could have been involved.

I really enjoyed the short stories, each different but with key links between them. I felt that many of the relationships were rushed and in the case of Sam and Caleana it was not believable. There was not enough of the silly cute relationship stuff that goes on, very business like rushed relationship.
However, I now have absolute hatred for Arobynn, I think the other books I'd red by this point hinted that it was him but now, I am definitely seething. I loved that Sarah J Maas was able to invoke that in me. Just a shame that the love relationship missed the mark.
I think reading it in this order does mean that you can see a change in writing style, if this is something that would bother you then I suggest reading it first. Also, there was consistent revisiting of facts through the shorts despite them all being compiled in one book. I see why this was done but it still irked me.
