I don’t like the time jumps either. Don’t know if they are worse if one never read the book, but I’d bet there is confusion lol.

Of course reading the book would help folks have an idea of what is coming next, but like most adapted from the novel works, they will explain things (if they are smart) coherently for the lay audience.
When I was a kid, that kind of non- specifically labeled time jumping was a no no, but maybe the current crop of consumers see it as an obvious trope to be blindly accepted, who knows.
