novelization of the first episode. nothing special, which is why it doesn't have five stars, but I gave it four because the first episode is great so.. yep.

a novelization of the first two buffy episodes. though i've seen it many times this was still fun to read. everything is more detailed and i love richie's writing style, plus she actually made me feel bad for luke :(

It was a pretty fun novelisation. The story is obviously great. Some of the dialogue works much better spoken than it does written. There are also a few instances where it's quite obvious that it's been adapted from a screenplay (sometimes one step away from describing a camera angle) but overall it's fun.

I read the French translation as practice. It was reasonably good, although sometimes the witty dialogue didn't quite translate, both as a translation into French, and as a translation onto a page as opposed to on a screen. But still, the story itself was good, and it was nice to read it as a novel rather than just rewatching the beloved episode.

The Harvest is exactly like the first two episodes of BtVS, and it was nice to read instead of watch!
