Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for giving me a free advanced copy of this book to read and review.

DNF - I found the definition of 'fandom' so broad as to diminish my interest, and really struggled making it through this. Might return at some point if I feel like trying again

Through research as diverse as femslash fiction, TV series fandoms, and K-Pop fandom in Japan to Marvel characters, YouTube game streams, he writers in this volume show the importance race plays in the world of media fandom is as influenced by conservative racial thinking than pretty much everything else, if not more. Time and again, the research here shows that we need to go beyond he stereotypical ideas of what the gender and race attributes are, and see, appreciate, and embrace the myriads of ways non-cisgender white people use media fandom to create meaning and make sense of the world.

Fandom, Now in Color is a brilliant and invaluable collection of essays on the topic of race and its relation with fans and fandom studies.
