I guess I would prefer to read this on some sort of reference blog? It kind of reads like a wikipedia entry with attitude.

After 2 attempts at the audiobook version I gave up on this.
For such an interesting topic this book was VERY dull.
I might give it another chance as a book but the audiobook is very hard to follow and just boring.

This was an awesome concept for a book and Ken Jennings is amazing. Describing the fictional afterlives of movies, books, religions, and mythologies in travel guide form sounds incredible on paper. I especially loved reading about the afterlives in Futurama, The Good Place, and Bill and Ted’s Bogus Journey as if they were in a guidebook.
But my main issue was that it got to be super repetitive since there were so many works that were outlined. I was always happy to see the title of something I loved, but eventually I just wanted to skip over ones I didn’t. Still pretty fun, but by the end I was definitely ready to move on to something else.

Not really a book that I felt like reading cover to cover. Might pick it back up.
