Great story, so-so reading

James Franco's reading didn't do much for this book. It felt like being read to by your enthusiastic but unskilled college roommate who's sharing his Vonnegut kick with you. His voice was monotone, he didn't seem to understand some of the intended cadences and phrasing of the book, he mispronounced a few words (calvary instead of cavalry, twice, for example), and his attempts at British accents was just sad. So many of the Audible performances are fantastic, but this one was disappointing.

I'm a huge Buffy and Angel fan, so I was ready to love this, but it let me down. It felt like some actors were reading rather than performing. The pacing is really off and I found myself skipping fights and lengthy dialogue that didn't add much to the plot. Tara's talks with her non-verbal monkey familiar just about killed me. This doesn't capture much of the goofy, snarky energy I want from Buffy. Instead it's got lots of clunky exposition, boring dialogue, and it's weirdly a downer, with characters spending a lot of time rehashing off-stage trauma from an alternate Buffy multiverse that we're not really invested in. It's great to hear Spike and Cordelia together again, but I don't know how I feel about a "deep" Cordelia. She's not much fun. Mostly this was a snooze. So sad!

I'd seen the film many times and loved it so the book was a treat. Genuinely creepy story. Plenty of bumps in the night.

Love the level of detail and scholarship that goes into this podcast, and how well written every episode is. Wonderful narration!
