starsal 's review for:
I wanted so much to love this book. Because I am a fangirl, of course, because of the title, and also because my son picked it out for me from the library. You have never seen anyone so proud as a 4-year-old saying, "Be quiet! Mommy is reading the book I picked out for her!"
So, really, I was all ready to be indulgent and encouraging and loving.
This book just sparked none of those emotions in me. It seemed not to so much be for established fan girls as for . . . girls who want to be fans? But then why would they not go consume a media? Girls don't need a guide on how to enjoy a fandom any more than boys do. I just couldn't imagine an audience for the book, and the writing itself--though I have enjoyed the author's online articles--wasn't enough to make up for it.
I'm sorry. Maybe it's for you. But it wasn't for me.
