Queen Charlotte by Shonda Rhimes, Julia Quinn

2.0

I watched the series few nights ago. The show was soulful, heart wrenching, beautifully executed with wonderful acting performances by the cast members. The minor characters shine bright and the story is just so perfect.

So then after I was done sobbing, I went ahead and was scrolling all the show content and realized they decided to turn the story into a book. I read the book the following night.

As much as I loved the show, I can't say that about the book. It lacked the soul and heart that was present in the show. I thought I would find more inner turmoil, the mental headspace of the characters. But the book simply felt like video to essay transcription.

In the show, the stories are show in two timelines in parallel. That didn’t happen in the book. I am giving it 2 star. You can easily ignore this book.
