Reviews
"Evans and Holmon examine a broad swath of the popular-culture landscape, from anime and video games to comic books and movies, mixing social commentary and insight with the sheer love of the true fan... [The] authors reach far and wide across fan culture and use a pleasing blend of humor and pathos to connect readers to the material. An exercise in pop culture criticism that is simultaneously funny, thoughtful, and provocative." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred) "This book is a welcome, come-in gesture. You may not get every pop culture reference, but you'll feel it." -- Chicago Tribune "Reading Black Nerd Problems will fill you with joy and give you hope for the future of geek culture. If you dig writing that is authentic, enthusiastic, and cynicism-free, this BNP collection will be your jam. I promise." --Ernest Cline, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Ready Player One "[A] wide-ranging, compulsively readable debut collection...Evans and Holmon are often hilarious...and always original. This hugely entertaining, eminently thoughtful collection is a master class in how powerful--and fun--cultural criticism can be." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "William Evans and Omar Holmon reveal the many things at work in the mind of the brown nerd: skepticism, humor, delight, but most of all, love. Man, I wish this book existed when I was a kid." --Marc Bernardin, co-creator of Comixology's Adora and the Distance and supervising producer of Star Trek: Picard "Holmon, [...is...] the co-founder, along with William Evans, 41, of the website Black Nerd Problems. Their book of the same title will be published this summer. Both projects excavate the territory of nerd culture -- comics, anime, e-sports, tabletop gaming, science fiction, fantasy and more -- from a Black perspective that the broader nerd community has historically overlooked or, worse still, outright attacked." -- T, The New York Times Style Magazine "Omar and Will are the best of the best at dissecting pop culture." --Kari Byron, bestselling author of Crash Test Girl , host of Crash Test World, and former host of Mythbusters "Alternately hilarious, thought-provoking, and passionate, sometimes all within the same essay. The authors' knowledge of all things nerdy is encyclopedic yet the depth at which they connect their subject matter to real-life issues is what makes the book stand out." -- School Library Journal "The humor balances the seriousness of the subject matter, allowing for a better, more intimate understanding of the authors' passions. By taking readers through feelings of disappointment, elation, confusion, and pure unbridled joy, Holmon and Evans make Black Nerd Problems an incredibly cathartic read and a must have for anyone that appreciates what it is to be a nerd." --AIPT Comics "If you are a blerd, Black Nerd Problems is a must-read. It is insightful, humorous, and written like you are just having a conversation with a nerdy friend." --Blerd.com "From the Marvel Cinematic Universe to the nuanced aspects of cosplay while Black, Evans and Holman give their unabashed and at times emotional takes on some of pop culture's greatest hits, making for a very entertaining read." --The Root, "The Best Books to Give (and Get) This Holiday Season"

Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
