This book says many of the things I've ranted about myself over the last couple years, but says them more eloquently and with more research than I would or could. I'll admit one part probably does slog a bit towards the end, but reading someone else extensively rewrite opinions I already agree with really doesn't bother me much. Though if you're not generally interested in the subject matter, I can understand how your eyes would glaze. However, if you're at all interested in the unfair media coverage “girls” shows are subjected to, the history of the various Pony incarnations, or some of the drama that has gone on in the MLP fan community (or just want something a bit deeper than “Wow, bronies. Huh.”), I'd strongly recommend this book.
