Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell
2.0

Let me explain. 3* is for me an average story. The story with cath and nick and levi and everything was average to me. it had nice elements in it (#teamLevi), but i didn't grab me like for example [b:Lola and the Boy Next Door|16101168|Lola and the Boy Next Door (Anna and the French Kiss, #2)|Stephanie Perkins|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1362160479s/16101168.jpg|7149084] did. So 3* there.

And then there is the minus 1* for the whole Simon stuff. It is to Harry Potterish to feel original, and I didn;t liked the pages at the end of the chapters. I even skipped them. I cannot ignore such a thing in a book when rating it.

So the story does feel like a 3* average nice read, but..just..

I will be reading other Rowell books, I won't be reading [b:Carry On|23734628|Carry On|Rainbow Rowell|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1429810397s/23734628.jpg|43346673].
