It was actually possible for the series to get worse... And unfortunately this isn't the final chapter. They since made Lake Placid v Anaconda.

Great movie to the reboot of Planet of the Apes. Excited to see what is next in the series. A bit slow but the story keeps you glued to the TV.

I read this novel in anticipation of the television series that came out last year. I liked it a lot, until the end. The end was kind of lame with the whole, happily ever after situation, and I was glad the end was changed in the tv series.

It’s rare that I prefer a film or TV series to the book it is based on but I think this may be the exception. Having only seen the 1st series on TV I thought I’d give the book a go and although the world-building lives up to what I’d expect the story itself is slow and not as tense.

It’s scary and an all believable world that Atwood creates but the telling seemed bogged down in details over the mundane.

I probably spoiled myself seeing the TV series first but I’d recommend that to all. I feel the theme has been gone over plenty so won't rehash but it's a worthwhile story however you decide to consume it.

I admit that I picked this book up because I'd been watching the TV series. Unlike some others who I'd seen review this before I didn't mind too much that the book wasn't as detailed and didn't match up 100% with the TV series. You have to accept that tv/film adaptations and the original books are very different mediums and try and judge them accordingly. I must admit I don't always succeed in this myself but I usually manage better when the book comes second.

I did like the fact that the book is more focused on Villanelle rather than Eve, I liked having that different viewpoint. Definitely worth a quick read if you fancy a bit more to sit alongside the series.
