Welcome to Night Vale

by Joseph Fink, Jeffrey Cranor, Cecil Baldwin, Dylan Marron, Retta, Thérèse Plummer, Dan Bittner

Atmospherically good, and writing to the standard of the better-written episodes. The plot didn't really start until about halfway through, at the Library, and then it moved along at a good clip.

The resolution fell flat, however---either I didn't get it, or the commentary about Troy as a type of parent was actually just trite and annoying. (Obviously I'm biased toward one of these things.) I preferred Dianne's meditations on parenthood in the first half of the book.
