Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell
3.0

Don't let the three star rating throw you, I did really enjoy this book! Overall, I would highly recommend this book to anyone!! I loved the focus on fan fiction, the characters were lovely and felt real, the family theme was touching, and the light romance was adorable and awkward. But personally, I would just never read it again.

I absolutely loved the characters (Levi specifically!!). Though I did want to reach in and shake Cath when she was being absolutely ridiculous.... How close-minded she was at times made me want to scream. I loved that she was all about her fan fiction, but my goodness. I can't believe how welcoming Regan and Levi were when all Cath would do is shut them down.

Also, when I first picked up this book, I almost put it down again because of how real Cath's feelings and anxiety about going off to college were- it really got my anxiety going!

And oh, the abrupt ending...
