uisimportant's review against another edition
Stopped reading this long time ago, just kept it on my reading shelf hoping that I would finish it eventually. I will pick this back up one day potentially for my grand. The author is someone that is major within my field of study, but I’m truly just not a nonfiction girl.

This is one of my all-time favorite non-fiction reads. The author's narrative tying the various chapters together are compelling, the writing is excellent, and each of the chapters tells an all-too-important story about fandom, fantasy, race, and the intersections between those things. Even the chapters that address shows I've never seen tell a story that I've seen repeated elsewhere in media, and each of the chapters serve as powerful case studies to re-examine the way that we look at fantasy media and black women within those worlds.

laura_anne_art's review against another edition
It's really good and I'm going to finish it later but right now it's too similar to my work and it's not enough of an escape and I'm too stressed by work to read this in my free time.
