I for one am kind of glad it wasn't a total adaption. That book scene of Dany groaning and shitting wasn't something that would be much fun to watch in show form.
Hardhome was a pretty brilliant part that was different from the books, in the books Jon didn't even go there. In the show he does, we get to see how it goes down and it ends up being one of if not the best episodes in the entire series.
If it makes you feel better, ASOIAF and GoT are different canonically, there's show canon and book canon. You can go on ignoring the show as it's not relevant to the books. The wiki actually explains this pretty well.

Straight from it. Don't let the show bug you too much, I hate the film adaption of V for Vendetta but I consider it completely separate from the graphic novel. I can read the comic over and over while ignoring the film. Might be a bit harder to do that with ASOIAF considering there's still two books left in the series and maybe we'll get Winds of Winter before 2018.
That doesn't make the show any better lmao.
There's not reason to kill off characters that haven't been killed in the novels, and there's NO FUCKING REASON TO COMPLETELY ASSASSINATE WHO A CHARACTER IS
I WILL NEVER NOT BE BITTER ABOUT MY BOY STANNIS HE'S THE ONLY ONE WORTHY TO SIT ON THAT fucking iron chair.
Also, Shireen, Myrcella, Barristan and Sansa all deserve better than what they got.
