Easily could have been written without the f-bombs but I loved this walk down the memory lane of my high school and college years.

What a fun read! Definitely recommend to anyone who loves pop culture and/or any of these shows. I even liked the chapters on The OC and Friday Night Lights, two shows I’ve never seen.

Mini Audiobook Review: This book was right up my alley! It was such a quick listen. Some of the information about the tv shows was not new for me (only because I live and breath for pop culture) but I still enjoyed it. I never watched Dawson's Creek so that section was the most interesting for me. This did make me want to rewatch My So Called Life and I have been wanting to do a rewatch of Glee and this had me itching for that as well.
I think if you had an interest in any of these shows growing up or even as an adult, give this a read.
I didn't think each section took too long so if you are expecting an in depth look at each of these, don't count on it. It gave enough info on the creation, during and the end.
Plus having Christine Lakin do the narration was the perfect pairing!
**I do not rate Non Fiction books as it is based on real events and real experiences.**

Dawson's Creek was appointment television when I was in college and I also have fond memories of watching the premier of The OC so of course I gobbled this book right up.
