The Secret History of Twin Peaks by Mark Frost

5.0

---

Like any good Twin Peaks fan I purchased this book the week it came out, but have just now gotten around to reading it in a single dizzying sitting. I was worried the "government dossier" format would wind up being dry or tedious, but it actually turned out to be loads of fun; by the end of the manuscript I felt like I was in Agent Preston's shoes of going "...the fuck?" I'm pretty sure we've all collectively accepted by this point that Twin Peaks is not intended to be "solved" like a traditional mystery, but damn if it isn't fun to try. I'm absolutely positive there are layers to this book that I've missed in my initial reading, and I definitely plan on revisiting it after doing another rewatch of the series.

The one fact I can state for certain: the owls are *definitely* not what they seem
