I started out as a fan of the show, and finally decided that I wanted to read the books. I enjoyed getting more of the backstories and smaller plot points that are naturally not going to fit into the TV show. I especially liked the parts with the brother at the Abbey that Claire opened up to about her journey. That said, there are a lot of difficult and triggering plot points. I was ready for them because I’ve seen the show, but it’s still hard to read (or listen to in my case) those things. But on the whole, I enjoyed the story.
