I've watched the first 3 episodes and read it previously. Very good. Netflix not as good as the book but not that bad,either.

Yes, I loved that book, but the reviews have put me off the tv series.

I so enjoyed the book. Not sure I will watch the film.

I binge watched it this afternoon. A little bit Disneyfied but I enjoyed it.

I liked the book as well.

An excellent book - never keen to see 'the film' once I've read the book tho'!

Oh, that’s interesting, as I just read a review saying how awful it was -

We watched all 4 episodes last night too. Hadn't read the book and thought the dramatisation was excellent.

If anyone has read this book, and enjoyed it, it is currently being serialised on Netflix. We watched all 4 episodes last night. I found it very moving and well acted.
