Let's face it the books can drag and people act like other shows cover 1200 years no problem. Yes let's just confuse everyone and please only the hardcore readers. The show is great

Books 1, 3, 5 are outstanding with 2 and 4 being fairly boring and very weird plot advancers. Interestingly, Asimov was only ~22 when he wrote the first 3.
The prequels (books 6,7 in the order they were written) are absolute garbage and are totally not worth reading. Asimov obviously was in decline (near his death) and must have gotten a huge pay day to write them in his old age. Some may disagree but just my $0.02.

I skim some of the boring parts in the book.
For the benefit of those who don't know that, Libby is an app through which you can borrow e-books and audio books from your library system (If they participate).

Honestly the only Asimov books I ever got into but even then, barely. The psychohistory is all that really interests me
But in reading his autobiography, towards the end, he would force himself to write 20 pages of the fiction stuff and then he would allow himself to write 10 pages of non-fiction that was his preference at the time. I am going through Counting the Eons right now and it is really fun to read his non-fiction.
I have not watched the Foundation series on Apple, because it seemed a hard series to adapt to TV, but if they renewed it, they mush have done something right. I will check it out.
Over and over again. Made my head hurt with how stupid the writing was
