They are not exactly following the plot and changed a lot of things but the gist remains the same. Since Julie Plec is one of the developers of the show, I knew there would be changes. One only has to compare the differences between TVD books and tv adaptation. Why on the earthy did they make Robert and Victor lovers? They were brothers in the book. Then there's the part about Mia and Sonya being sisters, why? I have watched four episodes so far, i keep expecting Adrian to shop up any day now. Since everything is happening all out of order, who knows? (This reminds me of the Percy Jackson movies) Despite all these changes, I did enjoy the new perspective.
Honestly, it isn't bad at all. If you overlook the weird first half of the first episode and simply focus on the central characters. The entire cast was a surprise. Daniela Nieves, the actress portraying Lissa reminds me of Blair waldorf, she even speaks the same.
