:D The Phryne books are a lot of fun, and I really loved the series, too. It is also fun, and gorgeous looking, and all the cast are great. It has a few differences from the books - mostly some extra plots introduced and extra backstory for Phryne.
The actress playing Phryne is wonderful, but she is older than book Phryne, which gives an slightly different (but interesting) spin to it. They also cast a charming actor as Inspector Jack Robinson, who is a similar age to Phryne, so he is no longer the avuncular book character (who admittedly wasn't one of my favourites). TV!Jack has awesome chemistry with Phryne, too, which the show is very well aware of and is playing up.
