Everything I Need I Get from You

of course, the most obvious issue is that it's not what it says on the cover - even then, there are so many big issues. i mean, how do you claim that star trek fic culture was mostly men?? how do you bend so many facts about 2000's fandom - just off the top of my head, ignoring big book fandoms like hp and twilight, or even just myspace and early kpop acts if she wanted to talk about music fandom only - even though there's so much information about it?
some parts of it were charming though, and to the end it thankfully gets less personal. she centers some parts of one chapter on queer and black fans, which is a relief bc it's a so very straight white girl perspective. after all, it's a long deep dive article into 1d fandom turned into a book. the academic angle was promising, because i read a lot of the works mentioned, but it's just bent to accessorize whatever point is being made. i kind of wish i'd spent my hours scrolling through some "crazy ass moments in 1d history" thread. and i wasn't even a 1d fan!!
