Orange is the New Black?

You'll have to excuse me for living under a rock, but I had no idea this was being made into a series until yesterday when Netflix UK emailed me about it.   I've spend the last day watching it, and I think it's pretty good.  I loved the book :-)

Anyone else watching/watched/read this?  What did you think?

We started it last night. So far we liked it!

I liked the book. I thought they were making a movie. I'll have to check out the series.

Oh cool, I didn't know there was a book of this! I have been waiting for the series for awhile. Laura Prepon is my girl crush so I was excited to see she was in it.

I thought the book was good, but can't imagine a series about it. I'll keep my eyes open for it.

I saw this was there yesterday so I bought the book, enjoying it so far and can't wait to watch the series!

DH and I watched about 10 minutes last night and turned it off. The main character was really unlikable and boring. Might try again to see if it got better, but we were not intrigued at all.

I haven't read the book.

Yeah, I thought the same thing.  The series has some of the same characters, but isn't exactly like the book.   I'm about to start episode 7.  It's better than I thought it was going to be.  Plus Jason Biggs is in it, which is kinda cool.
