13476910, Are you bothered by the departures from the book. (Spoilers)
Posted by Buddy_Gilapagos, Thu Jan-19-23 09:14 AM
I just finished the book because its been on my list forever and I knew if I watched the show I would never read it.

There was something that bothered both me and my wife about the book in particular. That is, how could she be so in love with her white husband when she experienced slavery?

It kind of feels like the series will be addressing it by, not giving her a husband and making Kevin just some guy she just met. I just think he isn't going to be around to the end in the series like he was in book. IDK, just guessing.

I've seen just one ep but wondering if I want to see the rest, the book kept me mad at white people for a minute.
