A huge repetition of themes, some problems are superficial and drag on for far too long.

I watched the movie that was on Netflix and decided to give the series a go. The book is almost always better than the film of course. I enjoyed reading it, even though I wanted to strangle Sophie at times because she really is just a narcissistic idiot. Agatha also has her own issues. But as these girls are portrayed as younger, figuring out life and who you are as a person can be difficult. They just don't have to be so delusional.

I bought the set so I will continue on this journey and see where it takes me. The read was pretty fun and went by fast enough once I sat down to actually start reading it.
