Re: "Just finished reading the first 2 books of the Silo series..."
A friend was a fan of the books before it was ever a show but she recommended them to me leading up to the show coming out. I've read the first one but I'm still working on the rest.

I read the first one and maybe the second long ago in like 2013 or so. Is the show worth watching?
@kelbot I got so hooked that I read the first in two days, had to buy the second since my library had a wait and reserved the third ahead of time. I enjoyed the second more than the first, third is great so far.
@StanStani the show is definitely good, lots of changes, but I think it’s heading in the same direction. There’s a bigger focus on characters, which makes things feel a lot slower. Episode 7 is already out, and I feel like it’s not even a quarter of the way through book one.
Just finished reading the first 2 books of the Silo series by High Howey (Wool and Shift) working on the 3rd now. This series is addictive! The show got me into it, but I’m finding the books a lot more interesting. Anyone else reading the books or watching the show?
