I just finished the Angel book "Dark Mirror," and I have to say I was kind of disappointed by this one. It wasn't bad or anything at all. But the description of it just made it sound like it was going to be so much more epic than it ended up being handled, imo. Though maybe I just expected too much and kind of over-hyped it.
...And then there are some Buffy and Angel books where I feel like the summaries don't do them justice at all--or they sound uninteresting--and then they end up being the most amazing things ever. LOL
#like there are two new characters in it and a part of me feels like it maybe spent too much time on them#but then there are other buffy/angel books that are WAY worse about that sort of thing *cough* Heat *cough* so maybe i'm being too harsh#i also kind of wanted more angelus. i'm not gonna lie. i feel like this book was kind of selling itself on the idea of angelus to the#audience and then there really wasn't any angelus in the end#basically this book was about demons making doubles of the angel cast. but more than anyone they wanted to make a double of angel:#really angelus#this book being written during season 4 just also adds a weirdness to it. because everyone and everything is weird then. that it does try#to address#but idk. i almost feel like it would have been better to write this story in an earlier season#or season 5. i'm still sad there's no angel books that take place in season 5#though it is nice getting to see more of memory-less cordelia and realizing that she was still good here (i.e. jasmine hadn't taken her#over yet)#and sadly it was the spell to try to get her memory back (that succeeded) that woke jasmine up. started her possession. and got that whole#horrible ball rolling
