What I did not like was
What I did like was most of the side characters that she was friends with. I really like the characters that
So overall, if this book wasn't part of the Night Vale series, I would have liked it. I wouldn't have gone in with a hope of more randomness that you get from Night Vale and would have just read a book about this random Old Woman and her crazy and creepy life.

Anybody that hasn't engaged in the world of Night Vale before this will find it an easy book to get into, and no prior information of Night Vale is required to sink your teeth into the story. Those who are familiar with Night Vale will only find themselves more enthralled with the Faceless Old Woman and the journey that brought her to Night Vale.
I listened to the audiobook , narrated by the bold and calculating voice of Mara Wilson, the original voice for the Faceless Old Woman, who does the story justice, as we all knew she would. I would even recommend the audiobook, as having the Faceless Old Woman narrate her own story is a delight to listen to.
