There’s some obvious filler and bits of melodramatic foreshadowing sprinkled here and there ... Devotees of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the podcast are most likely the target audience for this book, but it can also be viewed as a joyful ode to the awesome ability of pop-culture arcana to create a solid community.
Die-hard Buffy fans who are expecting a more direct retrospective or philosophical analysis may want to look elsewhere for their vampire fix, but those interested in fandoms will find plenty of insights here. Whether readers are on their latest rewatch or want to dip their toes back into the Buffyverse, this book will help them do just that.
An enthusiastic and emotional account of how personal lives and a fandom community can entwine. Potential readers should know that while the authors convey much love for Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the amount of content focusing on the TV show is relatively small, resulting in a book more likely to satisfy fans of the podcast specifically than Buffy fans in general.
