I fell hard and fast in love with this book and its characters.
I don't read a lot of contemporary books, so this one really in all honesty didn't seem like a book I was going to purchase and read. So while I was looking after my aunt's house one weekend I asked my cousin if I could give it a read, since she owned a copy. (Same weekend I read 'The Selection' in case you were wondering.)
I had heard a lot of good things about it and was a little skeptical but I went in open minded.
Around the fourth chapter I decided I was hooked.
Around the seventh chapter I decided I was going to buy a copy for myself.
Around the 12th chapter my aunt and her family came home and then I went home.
So I bought a copy and finished it rather quickly considering its size. It actually helped calm me down before my very first job interview ever and I pretty much fell in love with all of the characters.
There's a spin off called 'Carry On' coming out at some point about the characters and story that the main character Cath fangirled over, however I'm a little weary about it because It doesn't sound like something I might read (so far, I haven't got all the details yet).
But you never know! I might fall in love with it just like I fell in love with this one. But for now I just want to read the rest of what Rainbow Rowell has to offer. I have her book Eleanor & Park that I plan on reading hopefully soon but my TBR pile is embarrassingly large.
I have probably three times the amount of books to read than I have actually read.
Yea, its bad, but I'm working my way up!
Fangirl kind of made me want to go back to college for some reason but I don't think I could do it just yet. If you want a great transitional from high school to college book, then you'll love this one.
I rated it 4 stars on goodreads though it's more like a 4.25 stars in all honesty.
(This is the only picture I have of my copy, sorry!)
If you'd like me to read/ review a book, just leave a comment below! I'll try not to give too many spoilers or give too much away while reviewing the books, but if I do, also let me know so I can give warnings to anyone who hasn't read the books before. I appreciate all feedback, but please be respectful on constructive criticism.
Everyone's opinions are valuable so please don't make anyone feel terrible for having their own opinion on a book. Just because it's different from yours does not mean it's the wrong opinion.
