Fangirl

Written by Rainbow Rowell

Cath and Wren are identical twins, who do everything the same, dress the same and taste almost identical. But the time has come when the twins have to go to college. At this moment Wren tells Cath that he does not want to share with her anymore, that they have to live their own lives without the need for the other. That for Cath was terrible, being very shy, it is difficult for her to socialize. The only thing that helps her in this horrible moment is the world of Simon Snow; In that world she can be free and write a very funny romance story. Without Wren, Cath feels completely alone, outside of her comfort zone. She has an unfriendly roommate, always accompanied by her attractive boyfriend, a writing teacher who thinks that fan fiction is the end of the civilized world, a handsome classmate, who only wants to talk about words ... And besides, he can not Stop worrying about your father, who is loving and fragile and has never really been alone. Now Cath has to decide if she is willing to open her heart to new friends and new experiences, and is realizing that there is much more to learn about love than she ever thought possible.

First I explain that it is Fangirl; It can be said that that word does not have a literal translation, but it is like a fan girl (but she is very fanatical about something).

"I'm afraid of everything. And I'm crazy As if maybe you think I'm a little crazy, but people only see the tip of the iceberg of madness. Underneath this slightly crazy and socially inept appearance, I am a complete disaster. "

Obviously first let's talk about Cath, she is shy and quite intelligent and madly loves the Simon Snow book series; everything about that saga makes a lot of reference to Harry Potter. For Cath with the fact that Wren told him that he no longer wanted to be with her, it hurt and affected him too much to the point that in the dorm room of his university Cath the first weeks he does not go out and he locks himself eating only bars energetics And that's not all about Cath, she also dedicates herself to writing a fanfic of Simon Snow and that fanfic she publishes it on a website (and of course that page has to be a reference to wattpad) and receives many visits and comments, such a point that is the most famous fanfic of that fandom. That point increases the fact that Cath is more enclosed in his world of Simon and want to leave less of him.

"It's just ... everything. There are too many people. And I do not fit. I do not know how to be. Nothing I'm good at is the kind of thing that matters there. Being smart does not matter, nor being good with words. And when those things do matter, it's just because people want something from me. Not because they love me. "

Fun fact about the fanfic of Cath is that in him, Simon (Harry) and Baz (Draco) have a love relationship.

Cath has a roommate, Reagan, who is super nasty and bitter, but still a very cool girl. Reagan has a friend-boyfriend named Levi, the two of them make Cath venture to live things and situations that she would not want for herself. Speaking of Levi, he is a very important boy in the story, being the typical popular boy that is in all the stories, but he has the detail that he is popular because he is really kind and everyone likes him. And, of course, I love him.

Another character is Nick, Cath's classmate. He makes Cath start thinking about something other than Simon's fanfic, but at the end it's not what they think, not at all.

What I love about the book is that between each chapter there are segments of the Simon Snow saga and there are also segments of the Cath fanfic.

And of course this fanfic became real a few years later, since Rainbow decided to write her own fanfic about Simon Snow and, of course, I already read the book and I already made a review; You can go read it and read other reviews I've done.

I have to say that Rainbow Rowell is one of my favorite writers with a teen theme, I've never been disappointed with the works I've read about her. I highly recommend reading this book and if you have already read it, you can leave it in the comments that you thought it was.
