I love the books and haven't seen the show yet. Don't know if I'm going to too. I don't like when things are different from the books.

I'll say that the show is better than the shadow and bone books, but I hate what they did with the crows' storyline

:0 how have I only just wandered upon this? I really need to look in the forums more often. I would love some book recommendations, I'm going to go raid the library soon :] YA sci fi/ fantasy is preferable, also minimal romance would be lovely but understandably such books are rare in YA land.

Hmm minimal romance? YA Fantasy? The Winternight Trilogy by Katherine Arden fits into that category. It's set in 13th century Russia and is based on Slavic folklore, which I know isn't everyone's cup of tea but there's basically no real romance until the last book and even then it's a subplot. I enjoyed it, although it was a slow start, it's beautifully written. The Everless series by Sara Holland also is a YA fantasy with minimal romance, from what I remember.

Agreed. I absolutely love the casting for most of the characters though - I swear they cast Jesper to act Jesper xD But I most definitely need to fangirl soon (still only on episode three, much to my disappoint I couldn't binge it on the weekend xD)

Tolstoy is actually kinda fun to read, realism once in awhile is like a nice treat. Thistleberry Farm said: oof guysgive me reassurance. starting to read War and Peace this week
There's only one book I reccomend to people and that's Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep by Philip K Dick, it's the best sci-fi cyber punk book ever written and the fact that Blade Runner took out the best part which is the empathy boxes makes me mad. For real though, it's everything right in this world, I can't even begin to tell you how many times I have read it. Also if you are into comics The Watchmen is perfection and genre ground breaking for the time.
