Also, it’s funny that the author insists that this isn’t a romance, since it could have been about 100 pages shorter if she cut out some of the sex scenes. I enjoy romance, but some of it just felt gratuitous.

I was surprised how true to the plot the tv show stayed.
A few characters are different, either in appearance, or not appearing at all.
I think my favorite difference was in Claire. It always bothered me in the show how rediculously modern she was, for all she's supposed to be intelligent. Many of the moments in the show that made me roll my eyes because "why would she be that stupid" never even happen in the book.
The chapters near the end with Captain Randall were too much for me and I did skim through them. I was glad to have some warning from the show on how bad it could be.
Over all I loved the book and look forward to recommending it to friends. It was a tad long and I found myself dragging through the last 200 pages. Still, I look forward to reading the next one.
