Major, and I mean major, spoilers for the book and miniseries Lessons in Chemistry are ahead. If you haven’t seen the Brie Larson-led show on the 2023 TV schedule, you can stream it with an Apple TV+ subscription.
With every book-to-screen adaptation, it’s a given that changes will be made as the project goes from page to live-action. That was certainly the case for the Apple TV+ adaptation of Lessons in Chemistry. The show made bold decisions that were different from the book, like completely changing Harriet’s character. However, it’s also still very faithful to the novel by Bonnie Garmus. This is especially true in the finale, which is actually quite different from its source material.
