The first two seasons were amazing
I couldn’t take my eyes off the screen. The music, the set design, the characters were perfect. However, after season 3 it was very drastic and it became really boring. Brianna and Rodger are really boring, and Brianna in particular is hard sometimes watch .It’s really disappointing because it was such an amazing show.
So I left the show
I watched season 4 and I’m still watching season 5, but it became obvious that it would never get back to its magic. I’m not sure if it’s the same story as the book, but I am, but the books and I think I’ll instead them read them.
