While there are a few interesting essays in here, I found most of them disappointing. They tended to just cover the history of a fandom, without actually trying to make any overarching point. It was the Harry Potter essay that I was most interested in, and therefore most disappointed by. Its ending message seemed to be: "Sexual fan fic... maybe not entirely horrible?"
