The story is interesting.....but, watching it wasn’t 😖
Along with the ridiculous black characters it was filled with soft porn 🤢
Are the books worth reading??

Well, I like them. I like the historical romance genre, and Julia Quinn is an excellent writer.

This is what Hollyweird doesn't get. They sell the series to book fans and then screw them over and lose that audience. My bet is non-book readers won't make up the difference. They haven't for Outlander, which has done something similarly stupid if not as egregious.

FWIW, a much better treatment of source material and very good TV is Discovery of Witches. I love Harkness's first three books and the TV treatment has done well by them. At least so far.
