A review by daumari
John Dies at the End by David Wong

3.0

Finally got to this, nearly a decade after putting it on the TBR... and I think I would've liked it more if I'd read it in 2012, as it very much has that edgy early 2000s on the internet feeling. Felt a bit serial which makes sense because this DID begin as a web serial. Reading it in 2022 feels dated, using 'retarded' as a pejorative really does remind me of high school (and it was going out of fashion even then).

I'm not totally sure I follow the other worlds thing, but I was entertained enough.

The audiobook was fine, though I had to consult a physical book for the chatlog because narrating makes it come across differently. Stephen Thorne's delivery reminded me of Ryan Reynolds' patter.
