'Get It Done'
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."
Still haven't read the books. I already have shelves of physical books, lots of Kindle books, and folders of fanfic that I sadly realize I am never going to be able to read through. Oh, well.
In season one of the TV series, they had me hooked at the sparrow in low gravity.
I watched part of season 1 before reading any books, and then read all the books as fast as possible and watched the show as it came out. I might actually have an outstanding short story that if I don't read it it isn't over. They are both great, the show is an excellent adaptation.
I watched the show and then read all the books. I think the show is excellent. Except for the occasional presence of Thomas Jane.
Get Alexei Navalny's book. It's awesome.
Thanks, all. I think I will side-car the show with the books now. Why not?
Since I did watch a lot of S1, I picture Holden, Amos, Alex, Naomi, and Avasalara (I love this actor so much), and Miller as the actors who portrayed them. But, like, Bobbi and Prax from Caliban, I just have my own mind's creation. It'll be interesting to see how they compare... assuming mostly the same characters are in both.
Oh my god, Bobbi is amazing.
You are in for such a treat, Jen!
BOBBI DRAPER (Expanse edition), OMG. Love her so much.
I thought the show started out okay and then got really excellent. (And then kind of ended weird because it was only 6 seasons of a 9-book series.)

All of this. Also, it was heartbreaking to try to explain to the people watching the series with me that there was so much more left unsaid and knowing they were never going to read it.
I may have to read the series again to complete the circle of read/watched/read.
eta: I just looked and Hoopla has the audiobooks. Now on my list as I Hoopla in the car.
Hi! If you, like me, are always happy to get your mitts on a bunch of Le Guin novels without wrecking your budget, here you go.
The complete Earthsea and Annals of the Western Shore series are there. With the exceptions of The Dispossessed and The Telling, the Hainish Cycle is not included, so you'll have to track down The Left Hand of Darkness and the rest elsewhere.
