No, you're not weird, and I think we probably think along the same lines. Fandom is really important to me, it's where I realised that I had spent 20 odd years of my life thinking that I was the only one who got as obsessed with fictional characters, who liked to write stories of them in my head, when there were so many people out there just like me. So on the one hand, I'm glad that a book like this exists, because it can only help to normalise the feelings the people in fandom have. But on the other hand, I'm sceptical that it could be written with the respect I think it deserves. Fangirl isn't perfect, but I would give Rowell an 8/10 for trying though.
