Now, I'm considered a nerd by many, and while I'm familiar with D&D, I've never played it. My boyfriend is oh-so-happy to consider me the love of his life when I get into stuff like this, as I'm a pretty big gamer myself--from the moment I heard about munchkin I wanted to play it. SO I say, YES, it's very girlfriend friendly, even more so when said girlfriend is already into that type of thing.

Currently, though, I'm playing Fallout 2 for the first time. For as long as I can remember, there has always been a divide in the fan base between these two games. Did you ever try FO2?

If this book was written for D&D 3-3.5 I could understand its existence but I am assuming it is for 4e, which really is not needed. If a new gamer is unable to create a character with the 4e PHB they probably should be playing, simply because they are unwilling or unable to read(p.27 PHP4e). With that being said, i can't wait to one day walk through my local book store and find, The Complete Idiots Guide to Writing a Complete Idiots Guide Book.
