Welcome to Night Vale

Welcome to Night Vale

I'm not sure if I should rate this because this is just one of those things that's just not for me. I was a fan of the podcast for an amount of time, but stopped years ago. I had bought the audio book and it was very reminiscent of the podcast, but so much so that I think it was hurt by it. Because it wasn't Cecil telling the story (even tho Cecil Baldwin–the actor who plays the character in the podcast–was the Narrator), but an anonymous narrator.

But it was still narrated very similarly to the podcast, which is done in the style of a radio show and not a novel. So, that's a bit confusing.

This would've been a great opportunity to view Night Vale from another character's eyes.

And not going to lie, this quickly became what I fell asleep to at the end of the day, which is another reason why I feel I can't give it a proper rating. (Tho I did get all the important bits, and don't feel I lost a lot for when I nodded off.)
