This book is a novelization collection of three episodes of the show in which Angel features heavily. It was enjoyable to read but it is exactly the same as the episodes. In which case I would rather watch the show. Onwards to the next book.

This is a thin book that is barely more than the the 3 episode scripts padded out to make into something readable. Aimed for the younger readers, which is interesting due to the moderately mature nature of the show. Not sure who this is aimed at then… Anyway, these are three standard tellings of the episodes Angel, Reptile Boy and Lie To Me. Reading them back-to-back can be a little jarring as the first one features the Master, the second one the Master’s long dead and the third one has Spike and Dru doing their thing. A good replacement if you can’t get to see the episodes, but if you can, you might was well watch them.

This was a pretty fun and easy read. When I first saw the episode titles, I wasn't sure exactly how well the Season 2 episodes would fit into the Buffy/Angel storyline, but actually all three of them together work quite nicely to portray a tragic, angsty teen romance.
I don't remember which episodes are covered in Volume 2, but it might be nice if we get even just a hint of some more actual romance between Buffy and Angel instead of just tension. But as far as this book goes, the episodes are three great episodes, and it was fun to spend a couple of hours reading them.

There isn't really much to say about this book. It is a fairly straight forward novelisation of 3 great episodes. Reading the stories (or maybe just the French translations) isn't enjoyable as watching it, of course, but still fun for a nice quick easy read.
