Parts of this were a little (OK, a lot) over-the-top, but I see it as one possible entry point into the game, for people who are leery of more traditional introductions--a fun and engaging one, at that. I'm not a girly-girl, nor do I know many of them, but I still enjoyed the book and took the included stereotypes as illustrative of the author and her gaming group alone and, like I said, over-the-top--not as something particularly deep or harmful or true of everyone.

(I wouldn't use its lessons to bring an already-geeky girl into a game, and I think that's clear to anyone reading it.)
