Admit it. We’ve all wondered what would have happened if Harry didn’t marry Ginny, Bella chose Jacob or Frodo never took the Ring. We sit and create stories about the different ‘what ifs’. Think you’re the first to do this? You’re late by a few years. Fans worldwide daily write chapters filled with their ideas of their series, books or movies.
Rowell captured the essence of being a fangirl when she created Cath. Cath, other than being a fangirl, is witty and creative. She immerses himself in the Simon Snow fandom rather than dealing with outside elements (her mother who has left, her father who is distant, and her twin sister, Wren, who is becoming more independent.) Which, I can totally relate to, as I do the same. Cath is an introvert who would like nothing more than to just read. It’s refreshing to read a novel like this one, where the main character is realistic, and somebody you can relate to.
Levi, Levi, Levi, what more can I say? No, he is not the quarterback. No, he is not the Prom King. But, he is the guy who will be there when you fall apart. He’s funny, smart., sincere. He has the looks, the smile and may I mention the job at Starbucks? (btw-never been to Starbucks, but I hope it’s filled with coffee) I would (personally) love to date. or be close to a guy who would allow me to read to him.
I must say, I didn’t like Wren at first. I know that twins tend to walk different directions, but even so, there’s this ‘sisterly bond’ that only became visible at the end of the book. Yes, I understand, Wren’s trying to figure out her own path, but she could have least walked part of it with Cath. Although, I did love reading the scenes wherein Cath and Wren had their sister times together.
I wanted Rowell to expand on the scenes that featured Reagan, as I really liked her. I thought she and Cath were to be enemies, but was pleased when they became good friends.
All around, Fangirl is a book that is meant to be enjoyed thoroughly. I imagine I’ll be reading it again and again. This book is recommended for anybody who wants to be understood about fandoms.
