Finished this last night. Echoing other sentiments around here, it was super good if not flawed and I loved the soundtrack. Katherine Langford did an amazing job with that role, and I'm very much glad it ended up a full series with her rather than a Netflix Original starring Selena Gomez.

That piss poor cover of "Only You" in the final episode almost ruined the entire thing. Also, Northern California is a dream land of fantastic high schools and gorgeous neighborhoods. Did the Alex denouement feel rushed or is that how it happens in the book? I kept expecting the teen with a gunshot wound in the ambulance to be the rear end in a top hat jock that terrorized the photographer.

e: And also nobody gets any comeuppance for how they treated her, not really.

Are you saying you would have liked a "victory lap" epilogue, where we see how the fallout from the deposition (I think it was a deposition right?) in the last episode effects everyone?

I was really hoping they left it open ended and obtuse so viewers would draw their own conclusions and not the awful prospect of milking it for a season 2.
