Big Bad by Lily Anderson

Love this book. Perfect for fans of BTVS. Lots and lots of easter eggs. Anderson is obviously a fan and has seen the series more than once. A lot of characters make an appearance. I wasn't initially sure if I would like this book. Truth be told, I was hesitant to read it but I ended up enjoying it! 

This is a whole different take on the Buffyverse. Minor characters become major ones and major ones become minors. This world is full of chaos. It takes place when Buffy is a teen.  The mayor has put up a sunshade. It's dark in Demondale previously known as Sunnydale all the time. Vampires rule. Beloved characters and demons are different yet similar in ways we know them.  

Buffy is still trying to win the fight against evil. This book revisited many things from the Buffy series. You'll feel as though you watching a new yet skewed episode of Buffy. I hope Anderson writes more about the Buffyverse.
