So far, I like it! One of Us is Lying was the book that genuinely got me into reading so obviously I was annoyed with certain things they took out or added that weren’t apart of the book. I think I loved the book so much that I was just so happy to have the show, but there were definitely something plenty of things they did that annoyed me. Overall the show is pretty good and I hope they give us a second season bc of the cliffhanger. Definitely recommend this show!!
!SPOILERS!
there were things that threw me off however. Yes, I totally understand a tv show adaption is never going to be exactly like the book, just some things like Jake getting shot, Nates probation officer(I think that’s what she was sorry if I’m wrong) not being in it, and other small things like certain Natewyn scenes I was hoping for. There were just certain things I was hoping to be in the show that weren’t which sucks especially when it’s your fav book. BUT it’s understandable and the show still kept me on my toes. Not to mention I really did love the actors, even though they all looked completely different in the show versus how they were described in the book. But they were all SO INCREDIBLE and did a really good job. Bronwyn and Nate had fantastic chemistry, Barrett’s acting as Jake being a psychopath is really good, and the actor who played Simon did a fantastic job especially when he was having his reaction to the peanut oil. A phenomenal job. So there were definitely things I was annoyed with, but I hope we get a second season and they still keep that season pretty true to the books!
