Attachments by Rainbow Rowell
2.0

Maybe I just have too-high expectations of Rainbow Rowell after falling in love with Fangirl, but this was just a disappointment from start to finish. The characters seemed shallow rather than complex (I honestly couldn’t tell Jennifer and Beth apart for most of the book), the emails/messages(?) more lifelike than the main narrative, the settings flat, the actual writing rather stream-of-consciousness. In other words, it’s most of what I don’t like about the romance genre. (Also, the title doesn’t really make sense and I was mildly appalled by the casual ableist jokes.)
