Thank you to NetGalley and Riverdale Avenue Books for the ARC.

As a Dr. Who fan, I was hoping for more from the original series forward. This is great for fans of the 13th Doctor and is very extensive on information for the show, books, comics, etc. 3 stars

I'm rounding up the score a bit, as I suspect this book would be better liked by more fervent fans. Parts of the book were quite good, others would appeal more to people with a stronger interest in the fandom.

I enjoyed this book because of the subject more than the writing style. Some good information in the first half f the book but it drags along in the second. read if you are a fan of the 13th Doctor.

This was a fun look into a fan's thoughts in The Binge-Watchers Guide to Doctor Who. I enjoyed the episode recaps, and the connections between recent story lines and the peak at the early years of Doctor Who.

I honestly didn't really get much out of the rest of the book since this author is not affiliated with the show it is mostly restating internet rumor without any real information.

Don't get me wrong I love the show that's why I read the book but I can google theories just like everyone else. I think an expansion on past sessions more recaps and maybe reaching out to see if any past cast members might want to contribute could really move this book to the next level.

I received this book form NetGalley and Riverdale Avenue Books for an honest review.

Without any new episodes of Doctor Who for a while, it was nice to read another fan's thoughts in The Binge-Watchers Guide to Doctor Who. I especially enjoyed the episode recaps, and the connections between recent Thirteen storylines and early Doctor Who.

But I wasn't crazy about the rest of the book. Parts of this just restated internet rumor and conflict, without any real commentary or additional information. I mean, I don't need to read this to discover that nerd boys were so, so mad about the first lady doctor.

I really liked this non-fiction book focusing on the 13th doctor in the Doctor Who series. There is a bit of a recollection of past doctors, and a bit more on the series that re-started with the 0th doctor. I really liked the synopsis of each episode in Season 11. I haven't watched this series since Matt Smith (the 11th doctor) left, so I have some catching up to do.

I received this book via Netgalley as an advanced reader.

As a long, long time Whovian, I loved this book. I got to learn many new facts about the show. It was well worth the read for an Dr. Who fan. I found Flohr analysis and perspective interesting. I also agree with Flohr the current series is better with Whittaker.
