- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? Yes
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

Very fun and clever! I look forward to seeing how the upcoming tv adaptation will compare to the book.

I actually watched the show before reading the book, but I loved both.
Michael Sheen and David Tennant portrayed Aziraphale and Crowley really well, in my opinion, and in all ways I think that they fit their characters.
The book, obviously, went into more detail than the show, and it was interesting to read.
I fell in love with Good Omens the first time I watched it, and then again when I read the book.

I‘ve read amazing books by both of these authors, but this really wasn’t one of it. Maybe it would’ve helped had I read this in German. Because the language is so weird that it was hard to understand for me. The Q&A in the end was sooo much easier to read!
Also I didn’t like any of the characters too much.
And it just drags on. How can you spend 80% of this book on a single day and then fly through 11 years in the rest?
