I love this book and this TV series. I do think that the TV series is better and is able to capture a lot more of what the writer was intending, but I really enjoyed the script and what the actors were given to make the show. 

I have a lot of thoughts about Fleabag that would probably make me seem very mentally ill, but I think that, to keep this review short, I will just touch on a few things.

I relate to Fleabag in a lot of ways and her relationships with other people. She is just going through life and reacting to what is given to her. Her monologue about wanting someone to tell her how to live pretty much sums up almost all my thoughts. 

I definitely prefer series two over one. Series one adds a lot of needed context and helps show the character growth of both Fleabag and Claire (sisters) in series two. I love series two more for a lot of reasons, such as the relationship with the priest and the “woman are born with pain built in” speech, but the main reason I love it more is because of the growth in the relationship between Claire and Fleabag. Fleabag starts the series off with “this is a love story” and very obviously, there is the love story between her and the priest, but I saw on the internet once that the love story is actually between her and Claire, which I have not be able to stop thinking about since. It is heavily focused on the two sisters and them growing and learning together. My favorite line of the entire book and TV show is when Claire says that she “would only run through an airport” for Fleabag.
