This is absolutely adorable and a lot of fun. This one has a lot of little cute Easter eggs for the series. I really enjoyed it!

This one gets an extra star over the first because it didn’t rely QUITE so heavily on using exact quotes (though there are some) from the show. The references still standout like sore thumbs. If you watched the show you’ll appreciate them, but if you have no idea about them, they’re super abstract. The villain, again, was fairly obvious. I know these are written for young readers, but kids aren’t stupid!

Fun, fun, fun. A middle grades story set in the Buffy verse with much of the lore intact. Delightful Buffy references for nostalgia sake.

Really enjoyed it since I am absolutely obsessed with Buffy. It was a very juvenile version of the story but I enjoyed the little hints of "inside jokes" with the Buffyverse. Very accessible for younger readers and would be perfect for anyone remotely interested in vampires.

I really enjoyed this, it's a great graphic novel for tweens who know nothing of Buffy and the adult Buffy fan. The mystery isn't super hard to figure out but it will keep readers engaged. Lots of great jokes and gags related to the original Buffy TV show.
