I enjoyed this dive into the world of buffy. I think clearly the author loved the material, but I think it's clear that he didn't want to take a full position on the Joss Whedon allegations but that turned out as very disjointed. He spends a lot of the first half of the book praising Whedon, to then address the importance of believing the victims and the difficulty of separating the art/artist, to then end the book praising him again?

I think this book did put into words a lot of my own thoughts and reactions to Buffy, including some reasons that the series did not really appeal to me for so long, but overall I did end up enjoying it. I definitely think it's worth reading for fans of the series, and I think if you enjoy TV/Cinema history, you could honestly enjoy the book without watching the show. Obviously it spoils a lot of the show so you may want to hold off if you do want to watch the show unspoiled.
