Review of 'It devours!' on 'Goodreads'

Well that was super fun!

Why I picked it up

I love Welcome to Nightvale. It's my favorite podcast. I've been to the live show.

What I liked about it

The idea that things that are seemingly in opposition to each other, like science and religion, don't necessarily need to be. And at the same time, things that are seemingly in perfect sync, like two people exploring an exciting new relationship together, don't necessarily need to be.

And neither of those truths means that either party is wrong, or without blame, or that they can't continue to coexist peacefully and productively, or that they can't be a comfort to each other.

I was honestly expecting a solid takedown of religion since it and capitalism have been major villains in the WTNV universe. What I got instead was a deescalation and disarming of both sides, a call for reason and sanity.
