a lot of the media i’ve been watching lately is based on books i’ve read, and the series/movie has taken such liberties that i don’t think it’s important to have read the source material at all really.

it has the cast of characters, the setting, the overall arc of the plot, but otherwise it’s wild in between. i’m trying to focus on enjoying it and not what deviates from the written version because … how does that promote enjoyment?
