Yes, she does! I love the TV show. Been meaning to try the books.

[Wayland, Ernest Scribbler]

The books are fantastic. I'm loving the series, a good bit of the way through it.

I want to start the show but I'm not sure if it spoils the books. I always try to do a book before the show/movie.

I liked the first one. Going to the library to grab the second tomorrow.
