@peachmangosteen thank you!

I’m very curious — how did the series differ?  Did you like the book?  Did you like the series?  Which was preferred?  I so enjoyed Big Little Lies.  

I'm very late to this, but I just finished the series. I thought it was ok.

I read it a while ago and I don't remember everything. but no one else has replied so what the heck.

In the book, Brooke wasn't gay. Savannah didn't have an affair with her.

Savannah's anger with the Delaneys was because when she was a child, she was basically being starved by her abusive mother (who wanted her to be a star dancer (or maybe gymnast?) the way Harry was a star tennis player). Savannah was at the tennis academy or their house and either asked for or was caught stealing food and each time, they (not realizing that she was being starved) shooed her away or yelled at her for being in their house etc. etc.

I would say as shows and books go: Big Little Lies, Nine Perfect Strangers, this.
