Welcome to Night Vale by Jeffrey Cranor, Joseph Fink
3.0

More like 2.5. I picked this book up largely because some authors whose books I've really enjoyed raved about this one. And I get why--I've never read a book quite like it, and the writing style was very intriguing. Ultimately I ended up not caring very much about the characters or what happened to them, and I love a genre-bender, but for me, I couldn't really figure out what this story was trying to be.

If you happen to pick it up and love the first few chapters, you'll probably like the rest. I stuck with this one through the end, but would have been okay if I had put it down after the first 100 pages. But there's definitely an audience for this one!
