As someone who's never listened to Night Vale, I feel like that meant I just didn't have the same level of connection to this. Still, it was simple and sweet and a pretty easy read to pass the time at work, even if it does make you feel a little bad about your own life.
As a longtime fan of Welcome to Night Vale, I really appreciated this peak into the lives of two of the creative people behind it as their relationship grew in and around the podcast. The unique approach made me think a lot about the role that memory plays in how we make meaning out of our lives and what it is like to build a relationship with a fellow creative.

A story that's raw and honest in ways that are heartwarming and humorous.
There is always two sides to the truth, memory is a strange thing, not only that it's unreliable but in a sense that it's tainted by one's feelings and experiences. It doesn't make it any less true.
It's an odd thing when you read the lifestory of a stranger and feel like it's a ghostwriter writing about your own life. Your own self. It's familiar and frightening to feel seen and understood by a woman you've never met, at times I hated it even because of how much it hit home. But that's why it's a good book.
I don't usually believe in signs from the universe, but this book spoke directly to me in ways I didn't know I needed.
I loved the wit, tremendously enjoyed the humor, and the streak of drama you expect from two creative people coming together.

I loved the premise of the book - two sides to the same love story, told over 10 years. I wasn’t familiar with the authors’ other work, and perhaps if I was, I would’ve found their story more interesting. It just fell short for me, and left me questioning who their target audience was - each other? Their fans? Potential future children? There were moments when I connected with them and their relationship story, but those were far and few between. 2.5 stars.
