I need to read these books - I didn’t realize it wasn’t just a show. I really loved the 1st season but then lost interest with the 2nd, so perhaps I’ll love the books.

I think it's a bit on the high school drama side of things, so it depends on what you like. It's not my cup tea, but if it's yours, go ahead, I have not read the book.

I watched the series, and I liked it. I want to read the books since books are usually better than film adaptations.

A fascinating blend of history, romance, and supernatural elements. The show does a great job adapting the books.

The book, A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness will definitely give you all the details so I would recommend it! I haven't watched the TV series but I'm sure it will be as entertaining as the book.

While I have not read the book and I don’t know how the movies fare in comparison. I can say that the movies was very great and I think they did a good job.
