Its good writing, but lets be real, if you have to buy a $15.99 book on how to work tumblr you probably shouldn't be on tumblr. Seriously it took me 2 minutes to figure it out on my own, not to mention that google and youtube is a thing. (BTW i read this own my friends phone because she bought it.)
