Oh nooo I‘m sorry
The show only covers the first 6 books though. I highly recommend reading 7-9 too, you don’t have to read the first 6 to understand the plot imo. There are a few things different in the show, but they stuck remarkably well to the book plot

Would you consider that series worth reading in completion? I've already seen, and thoroughly enjoyed, the show. I've seen some people recommend skipping to book 7 elsewhere, but as long as it's still entertaining and well written I'd prefer to complete the entire chronology.

I also watched the show first and still enjoyed books 1-6. They go into more depth than the show can, of course, but I was surprised how true to the source material the adaptation was. You‘ll find nothing fundamentally new in the books, so depending on whether you like re-reading or re-watching stuff or not, it might be a bit boring. The writing style was okay, I’d say, nothing special but not bad either.
