Forget Next, Against Mind and Through My Window, this new series available for streaming breaks them down

Warning to romance lovers young teenager, a new pink-tinged series arrives on Prime Video today. If you like complex love stories, adapted from novels, with charismatic actors and sensual scenes in franchises such as Next, Against the Grain, Through My Window, To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before and others, then this new fiction is for you!

Fall under the spell of Ruby and James

It is once again a successful series of novels that is the subject of a live-action adaptation, and this new novel does not come from the United States or Spain, usually copied for this type of literature for the big and small screens.

Germany is taking the market of these films and TV series by storm and it’s a success! Discover the love story of Ruby and James in Maxton Hall: The World Between Us, adapted from the literary series Maxton Hall by Mona Kasten, composed of three novels “Rescue”, “Rescue”, “Rescue”.

The first season of the German series, created by Daphne Ferraro and consisting of 6 episodes, adapts the first volume of the literary saga and immerses us in the world of Maxton Hall, a prestigious private high school in which Ruby Bell (Harriet Herbig-Matten) develops intelligently.

This scholarship student doesn’t care about money, parties or power because his only goal is to get into Oxford University. But when she accidentally discovers a secret that could tarnish the Beaufort family’s reputation, the young woman finds her life turned upside down.

Son James Beaufort (Damian Hardung, seen in How to Sell Drugs Online (Fast) on Netflix), popular, arrogant and rich, is determined to silence Ruby. Their exchange of passionate words suddenly ignites a spark.

Better than “After” and company

Things get complicated in Ruby’s mind and heart, which James turns upside down, himself disturbed by his attraction. They come from different worlds. And yet, they are made for each other.

This modern love story between the classes of a prestigious private school includes all the codes of romantic novels of the same style with two charismatic, brilliant and cheeky main characters, a pop soundtrack, a stylized environment and many twists.

Maxton Hall is also worth it for its luxurious setting and dreamy scenery.

If the Maxton Hall series fits into a very specific genre, it is distinguished by its choice of a series format rather than a film series, and this is a positive point in contrast to other weaker and less well-crafted adaptations such as After, Against the Grain or Through My Window. .

We relate to and recognize characters that take time to develop and their romance over several episodes rather than a single first film. More charming than the other films mentioned, Maxton Hall is similar in atmosphere and writing to fiction like SKAM, one of Norway’s gems that left its mark on a whole generation of teenagers.

The series “Maxton Hall: The World That Between Us” is available on Prime Video.
