I actually really like Clara in the new series - I gave up watching new!Who mid-season 6 and only watched the very occasional episode since then, but she didn't impress me at all in the few Eleven episodes with her that I saw. Now though ... I don't quite care for the specialness of her character, but I really feel Coleman has a lot of chemistry with Capaldi and I've been enjoying all Twelve & Clara interaction on screen so far. This is missing from the book, though, although granted, it'd be very difficult to show a similar level of interaction, with the same kind of chemistry, in a book.

My son LOVES Clara and tells me I "miss the point of her character" ! Capald seems to be settling into the role so I'm looking forward to the rest of this series. I'm on the hold list for the other book-The Blood Cell. I wish I hadn't read some of the reviews since it seems darker & bloodier than I probably am going to enjoy
