So, I mostly liked the treatment of introversion and fandom. This book is one of the best examples of a good friend of an introvert that I've ever seen. There are issues with the book (I have issues with some of the twin stuff, and the English professor stuff). And yeah, the fic isn't always perfect, but it also reads incredibly accurate. It reads like Rainbow Rowell understands what fic is fo some people, and what it can be. Is it always good fic? No. Are there problems (like the fact that Cath apparently has no really good online friends), absolutely. But on the whole the introversion and fic things are not the things I have issues with in this book.
Introversion and shyness aren't demonized, in the end. They're not universally praised, but they aren't demonized.

Second favourite Rainbow Rowell, I think.
