#15: Fangirl

I loved the book Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell.  I think the reason I loved it so much is because the main character Cath/Cather reminded me a lot of myself.  Normally I wouldn't like a character who is like me, but she made me realize it is okay to be different.  Now, I am not a writer of fanfiction like her, but it was her traits and emotions that I found similar.

The story starts with Cath going off to college and really not fitting in.  She finds it hard to make friends, thinks her room mate hates her, and just really feels very nervous about everything.  She also worries about her dad back home and her party animal sister.  I liked how we slowly got to see how Cath started interacting with other characters.

While I liked the first part of the book, I really loved the 2nd part.  I don't want to give any spoilers, but I will just say that I loved the love story in this book.  It just came me a happy feeling and made me want to cuddle with my husband.
