3.0

Loveable characters: Yes

Not as enjoyable as the first one. This volume jumps around alot, from pre season 1, then to seasons 2 and 3. The best story was " a stake to the heart." It dealt with the aftermath of buffy parents divorce and the stages of grief (and of course, demons.) I really loved the artwork for this one too. Instead of the chronological order the first book had, this felt jumbled and chaotic.  As much as I love Buffy, the bad outshines the good in this volume. I found myself bored for the most part.
