Regardless, I think both hold merit, and I would suggest reading the book and watching the show for the richest experience. ![]() Maybe I would have felt differently if I had read the book first. The book does add some richness to the story from the show, however, honestly, I think the show was the superior of the two. The major emotional arc of the show - the relationship between Kristen and Jeevan - isn't present in the book at all. The book includes most of the same characters, though the characters are given different circumstances and plot lines. While some of the details are similar, they really are distant cousins of each other. It's as though two authors were given basic plotlines, and then told to submit their version of the story. The book and the show were so different that it actually proves difficult to compare the two. Instead of a world overwhelmed by constant fear, murder, and survival, there is art, there is Shakespeare, and there is a realistic outline of trauma that rises above just generic sadness. The writing was unique and creative, and it envisioned a post-pandemic world that didn't rehash the typical tropes. Then, I proceeded to read the book afterwards. This review is unusual in that I watched the TV show based on the novel first.
