I loved this book. For me, someone who feels like an awkward outsider to a game my friends seem to understand way better than I do, this helped a lot of the pieces make sense to me. The sidebars and pink boxes provided welcome breaks between absorbing a lot of information, and I liked the storytelling about the author's non-d&d friends, and her d&d group. It helped me understand better. And while I know some found the pink and the shopping and the ubergirlyness of this book grating, I loved it. It made the book and its subject far less intimidating to me.
My only wish is that they would release an updated version to go with D&D version 4. This book was written for the previous edition, and as I understand it there are differences. I'm still a huge newbie, though, so maybe not.
