Two thoughts:
1. I used to find the faceless old woman who secretly lives in my home endearing, but now I am mostly terrified of her.
2. I never thought a Night Vale book would make me cry, yet here we are.

I was in love and GUSHING from page 1, sentence 1. I will admit that the bulk of this book is backstory. It's important world building and it makes the ending satisfying to be honest, however I just didn't get much pleasure out of the backstory. I found it tedious and boring. It was a chore to get through it but I'm glad I did. I'm honestly anxious to read more from this duo of authors.
