I'm kind of surprised that i *still* need this sort of validation that i'm not alone -- not sure if that says more about me or society (50/50, maybe?).
Yeah, me too. Rats.
I enjoyed it, but then I didn't at all know what to expect before I picked it up. As for the hmm apparent tokenism, well, I thought that the book was fairly diverse for what it is. Mostly I was happy that it wasn't all cookie-cutter similarity. Then again, sometimes I have very low expectations and thus am occasionally surprised (in a good way).
To me, it also seemed like the editors would have plenty of material to go further with a second book. I wonder if that's in the works? (Oh, to have read this just before WisCon, when they were there.)
She's suck a geek!
