mal_reads_books's review against another edition

Already past 60% and not feeling it. The start was good. However, after they started introducing all these side characters, it was hard to follow and didn’t feel like it was going anywhere. Even the Armageddon chapter (which takes 6 hours to get through) is tedious. I wasn’t a fan of the rambly, scattered writing style either. As a non-Brit, most of the humor and references were lost on me.

Minor: Sexual content, Racism, Fatphobia, Ableism, and Homophobia

Some parts felt dated, like the humor, use of slurs, and how non-Western characters and places are viewed or portrayed (Japanese people or Africa, for example).

“You don't have to test everything to destruction just to see if you made it right.” 

after finishing s2 of the show I had to read the masterpiece that inspired it all and I was not disappointed, I believe this is one of my favorites of the year.

if I don't get s3 like rn I will probably die and crowley has to be my fav character, cannot believe I went from being afraid of David to having him as one of my favorite characters ever but c'est la vie

This book was a lot of fun, I couldn’t bring myself to 5 star it for the simple reason that there’s some casual racism, ableism, and fatphobia
