Gruselig, wie viele Parallelen es gibt zwischen der Wahnsinnigen aus den Staaten und der Wahnsinnigen aus Lippe. Ich denke, beim nächsten The-Guild-Marathon werde ich manche Staffeln mit ganz anderen Augen sehen ...
Schönes Buch, flugs weggelesen, mehrfach laut gelacht, mehrfach sehr ergriffen gewesen. Empfehlung für alle Internetmenschen und She-Geeks.

Felica Day's writing has a particular quirky, personal style that draws you in. You want to be her friend.

My only quibble is the book does seem light on detail. There are quirky moments from her youth and some history of her, quirky moments from her pre-internet fame days, quirky moments from shooting The Guild, and some revealing moments regarding addiction and depression. However there is a sense she is holding things back, possibly from a desire to not expose parts of her life she feels are more private (for example her boyfriend is mentioned a couple of times, but never identified nor are we told anything about him or interactions with him.)

Regardless, I very much enjoyed the book, identified with her chapters on WoW addiction and depression, and after finishing it got the audiobook to hear it read in her own voice. Recommended.
