Thanks to all your recommendations I just finished The Expanse! What a show!!

Has anyone read the books *after* watching the show? Should I? I have so many questions I think the books will help clear up (Re: Laconia).

If you have shows you watched after The Expanse please also recommend those too, I’m really going to miss living in this world (or should I say System) while watching this show!

@racheltobac The books are absolutely outstanding. The show made Naomi weak. Shes the most badass character of all time in the books.

@SheHacksPurple @racheltobac agreed that Naomi was so much better in the books (though I did still love her on the show, but agree that the show made her weak). The books also get much more into the significance of Laconia. I read the books, then watched the show, then reread the books. The collection of novellas is also quite good, especially The Churn.

@bcwood @racheltobac yessssss. The churn was tragic, but connected so many dots for me

@SheHacksPurple @racheltobac yes, definitely. Added so much depth to Amos’ character.
