The series is adapted from the 2019 novel of the same name by author Holly Jackson. The first in a trilogy of novels, there is room for further seasons of the show, though executive producers Matthew Read and Frith Tiplady (both formerly producers on Netflix’s hit gangster drama series, “Peaky Blinders”) confirmed in an interview with Variety last October that the first season covers the events of the first book and has a real ending. Rest easy, no maddening cliffhangers to be expected here. Speaking with BBC, Jackson shared what she thought made the novel a hit with so many readers now waiting for the series to drop, saying, “We have lots of teenage angst and antics and those laugh-out-loud moments ... and then, suddenly, you’re slapped around the face with the dark adult world of a crime thriller.”
