I'm guessing Hill originally wrote this with a guy in mind until flipping it at the last minute, or AMC has set this in a different era than the novel.

Season 2 premiered a few weeks ago on AMC. I was on the fence about watching this season since I was disappointed with season 1. I watched the first episode thus far. Anyone else tuned in?

I'm still watching the show. I thought the eight-year time-jump was a good move. I also liked the second episode which dropped Vic and provided Manx's backstory. The problem is that they create situations that in a film would build toward the climax, but then they have to walk them back because it's a series and we have to keep the story going. The other problem is Vic, who has become a very damaged character, -understandbly so, mind you, - but its still hard to feel sympathy for her.

3 episodes into the 2nd season, and I thought the first one was tedious...
Other than giving the main character some bad tattoos, they have made zero effort to age any of the characters the 8 years that are supposed to have passed. The actress playing the main character's mom looks like she's younger than her daughter to begin with.

I just binged both seasons over the weekend. I think season one was the strongest. Two tried to do too much at once.
