Fiction

I consider the books much better than the TV show.

Same with the Inspector Banks books--the series was good, but I preferred the books.

Morse--Oh dear. It's better to stick to the TV show because the books haven't aged as well. I'm trying to remember the one that involved a rape case, and the victim-blaming was so pernicious that it was triggering for me to read so soon after my own assault. The title was something-Woodstock (that much I remember). It involves a murdered rape victim, but Morse actually 'muses' early on that that the victim probably wanted to be raped. And then he treats the case with downright indifference, not even following proper forensics that were common for the day.

Bloody sexist wanker. Can't stand him.
