It felt so good to be back in the world of Buffy! This book was SO close to 5 stars for me; but it was not quite there. I relished in all of the little references and snippets to the Buffy movie, show, and comics. I am sure I understood far more than a lot of people may since I have been uber obsessed with Buffy since I was in elementary school, but I also think that you do not have to be a Buffy fan or know much about Buffy to love this book. I am so ready for the second book to get written and released already that I can hardly stand it, though! 4.5 stars for this one!
