Adaptations are alwaysss bad, but I was still disappointed watching the series right after reading the book. You’re absolutely right, you highlighted the differences well and they really white washed Andie’s character. She was extremely evil in the book. Nat and one of her other characters were merged and she leaked the nudes to bully her cuz she was jealous of her. Nat’s brother was a lot more grey in the books. Max got arrested in the book, and they discounted PiP’s intelligence a lot. Like with the printer at Naomi’s place, she had thought of that earlier and ensured it tracks a history of what gets printed, which comes back later in the series. Naomi liked Sal, and she didn’t just tell PiP that he had an alibi, Pip did the digging. She stalked and found out that Max had another secret Instagram ID instead of Naomi just giving her the deets. PiP was a lot more smart in the book. She texts Andie’s friend pretending to be the other friend and gets the details about the Secret Older guy, whereas Ravi does that in the series ( That’s not too bad, it gave Ravi a little more essence). How PiP follows Howie, how Ravi tracks her phone to get to her in the climax is because she gets him to do it when she intentionally leaves it in Elliot’s car was a lot more cohesive than how it’s portrayed in the series that Cara just does it all the time. That Stanley, ( Journalist) was no where to be seen in the series.These were a few more differences that I noticed other than the ones you mentioned. For me, the series was definitely underwhelming as compared to the book but that’s almost always the case with adaptations.

You literally hit everything!! I completely forgot about some of this stuff to be honest, but you’re so right that too many things were just “given” to Pip and felt convenient. She is so smart in the books, which is why I loved her so much. My biggest peeve with the adaptation is how they only portrayed Andie as the victim 🙃. Like come on guys, Holly Jackson did all the work for you and built these awesome, developed, and gray characters and you just decide to do your own thing in the TV show and make them bland 🤦🏻‍♀️

Ughh Losing Hope I would put at #1. I was sobbing the first few pages because of already knowing the lore but It truly was an amazing peice. With that being said I understand 100% why you rated it what you did there was no surprises really besides the letter from Less but I have developed such an attachment to Sky and Holder I can't get myself to read Finding Cinderella I feel like I will be bored.

As someone who watched the show first and read the book after, I can totally see the differences. The pacing was really weird at points, going to fast or to slow or skiping things or characters. But honestly the show was pretty cool for me as a casual viewer, while the book being a bigger world with so much more stuff happening

Trying to avoid spoilers: It was a good book. But the ending was meh, imho (dead should stay dead, you know, writing 101). Then, the next book subverts the romance expectations 110% and is super toxic. The writing and general plot is pretty good, though. Just my opinion!!!

The show was Sooo different 🥲 I read the book after hearing that its going to adapted in a show and I was thinking of reading the book from a long time anyway and I liked the books (havet read the kas one yet) but the show was... like it didn't include many good scenes and merged many characters. Moreover the casting (I was satisfied with Pip's one tho she was perfect) Maybe due to the time limit and low budget idk but the show was just not it. Btw can you remind me wy andie bell leaked nat's n?

I had to think about it pretty separately from the book to enjoy it 😅 but my expectations are always reallyyyy low with adaptations.

In the TV show, I don’t think they even mention who leaked them 🙃

The whole time I was wondering what was the cause and so disappointed to find out it was fate for them to find a way to falling in love again… I kept thinking it was connected to the Tarot reader, voodoo spell that one of the fathers did to the other father as revenge to what happened to the business and to find out her role was having an affair with Charlize dad and holding her hostage at the Jaimas Jaimas house??? How did she even get away with that ?? No investigation at the home or even Tarot reader and Cora? Charlize was left to think she was trespassing and Silas didn’t correct her even after she found out he didn’t lose his memory after visiting her dad….

I had the similar feeling. I knew it was her dad from the first 5 chapters and the rest of the book was just waiting to see how who was his collaborator. So watching Bel dig her heals and bark up the wrong three for the biggest part of the book was so tedious. I like the nail baiting chase at the end. Everything that come after that wrapped up to easily though. Sherry just following blackmail orders and Carter happily letting go of the only parents she knew. Documentary folks happily forgoing months of filming cost. And the trio living with such a huge family secret that they had no one to talk about but each other. Like all three of them would need boatloads of therapy to process what happened but due to them hiding the evidence, none of them would have the opportunity to ever process it and would live with this massive secret. First third of the book: 2/5 Middle of the book: 3/5 Finale: 5/5 Resolution: 2/5

Savannah rushes out with Grayson on her trail. Avery agrees to give the money and when he receives the money he says (and I think this would be a cool twist because we assume that it was Eve who kidnapped but what if she worked with Alice) "A Hawthorne did this."
