Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell
4.0

I feel like if I read this book in high school, maybe I would have identified with it more. Same with Gilmore Girls. I think I started watching too late in life.

Not that Fangirl (and Gilmore Girls) isn't a good book. Rainbow Rowell knows her audience and her niche. Her books are about coming of age, knowing yourself, and letting go of the past. Simply put, I couldn't identify with the characters as much as the college-aged me probably would have. And I hated that, because I so wanted to.
