Welcome to Night Vale by Jeffrey Cranor, Joseph Fink
emotional slow-paced

A fascinating read in the year 2025 but so, so slow paced. Quite a few small beautiful moments up until they actually reach King City, and the book takes off. I LOVED the King City part and found it very moving, but it's only the last 70 pages of a 400 page book.

Not a good choice unless you've enjoyed the podcast before. I think the radio show sections of the book should have been cut--it does make you appreciate the great sound design and voice acting of the podcast, though. Recommended if you're willing to be patient for the payoff.
