Anyone read Orange is the New Black?

It's my book club selection this month, and I am having such a hard time with it. I'm really not into it. I even tried watching it on Netflix but I think I turned myself off to it even more. Opinions?

I liked the show, but HATED the book. I found it to be disjointed and preachy. I also found Piper to be annoying and spoiled as hell, whereas I found her much more likeable in the show.

That's funny. I felt the opposite! I felt like she was just so much more humble in the book. I really enjoyed the book and the TV show, but separately. They are very different.

I agree with this!

After watching the show and enjoying it, I found the book hard to follow b/c of it's differences.
