There was no ticky box for "I read the book and it was unbeliavebly bad but maybe the TV show's better" so I had to select "considering watching this" :D

I kinda liked the first book, the second book was okay, and I still haven't finished the third book, because the beginning ... was just nope.
I've seen the "eye" promo for this, and that's just ... no!

but I'm still considering it. so, yeah, probably going to check it out, especially since it got good reviews from most tv sites.
