I absolutely loved Fangirl and Eleanor&Park, so I expected to be whooped by the story in Attachments.
Well, I wasn't.
(Granted, it was Rowell's first book)
You follow two sets of characters: on the one hand, Lincoln, an IT guy; on the other, Beth and Jennifer, friends who exchange long emails.
I liked Beth and Jennifer's exchanges and seeing them become more personal over time, but… I didn't feel enticed by the story for the first half of it, and the ending felt too rushed and romantic. (Yes, this is a love story, it's very obvious isn't it)
