It is hard to say what I think about this series because it has two sides. One is the relationship with Nora and Simon. And the other one is all the rest of characters and how they set the tone and drive the story.
The first part is really good (Nora and Simons relationship), it is scary to see how Nora falls deeper in to some kind of dependence and Simons mental instability hurting her and himself all the time. It is creepy and kind of twisted but for anyone knowing how this kind of relationships can be it is not unreal. In fact it is unusual since you get kind of closer to Nora and Simons relationship then what you usually do in this kind of series.
But then you have the weak point and it is all the rest. Especially Noras friends and Simons ex but also Simons mother. They all act strange. Simons mother is good for the story when you here her in the phone. You get an understanding of how tough Simons upbringing may have been. But they go to far with her when Nora and Simon meet her at Simons place.
Simons ex act in a way that is hard to understand. If she truly knows how crazy Simon could be she would just want to stay away from him and his life.
And the worst is Noras friends. They are an annoying bunch of people that do extremely absurd things all the time.
So all in all. I would recommend this series but know that it has huge flaws. Just take your focus on the relationship between Nora and SImon and try to stomach that the rest is just not that good. If you do that you may appreciate the series for what it is.
