Now, this book did try really hard to give an introspective look on fandom spaces, but as someone who actively studies and researches fandom spaces, I'm disappointed. And disturbed. I know some KPOP stans can be a little wonky. I like KPOP. I have friends who are like mega-stans. I know there are weirdos that say unhinged shit. However, putting the worst a community has to offer into a book and then publishing it and forcing someone to narrate is just criminal. I hope she got paid well for reading "I went to a KPOP concert after being a hater and now I imagine my boyfriend having a three-way with a KPOP boy who I compare to a neck with a penis."
With all this being said, I am so sorry to my future students who I will make read/listen to this.

some satire on fandom / fangirls / kpop but what a word salad!!!!!! there were definitely some times that the disregard for rules or form paid off and the most miraculous phrase emerged, but it felt like wading through a bog to get there
I decided early on in reading to embrace the weirdness, but what was the purpose?!
the characters are stilted and undeveloped, but the absolute disregard to differentiating fantasy and reality is interesting i guess
