    The last season is shortened and they skipped the final book. Other than that, it’s basically the same.

    Oh, and they changed which one of the main characters died because he was a sleaze towards the female fans.

      They didn’t skip any books, they just stopped before the final trilogy. Which makes a lot of sense.

      Tap for spoiler

      Are you referring to Draper? I hope they didn’t kill off Amos, he’s pretty big in the story.

        He’s off a bit there. They stopped the show with the end of Book 6, right before the time jump for Book 7. So they didn’t make the final 3 books into the show. There’s hints and foreshadowing for them.

        Also the books don’t directly correlate with seasons until Season 4.

        • Book 1: Season 1 and first half of Season 2
        • Book 2: Second half of Season 2 and first half of Season 3
        • Book 3: Shortened and only the second half of Season 3.
        • Book 4: Season 4
        • Book 5: Season 5
        • Book 6: Season 6 (but only 6 long episodes)
