I loved the book and enjoyed the series for the most part. But they changed way too much from the book. In the book the brother was not disabled so the whole storyline involving the brother bothered me. In the book Carrie's mom plays a big role and she is completely different in the series. A lot of other characters that are important in the book are not in the series and vice versa. It was an entertaining show, but nowhere near as good as the book.

So many of the bad reviews are from people that bailed on the show early on which in my opinion isn't fair. Why review something when you haven't seen it in its entirety. Also, who would rely on a recommendation from someone who only watched one or two episodes? I admit that it took a couple of episodes for me to get interested but it got better and better. I can usually figure out the twist way before the reveal but not this time. Twist after twist! I think it was a really impressive execution of a murder mystery. I am really hoping for a season 2!! They tied up all loose ends but ended with a setup for more seasons.
