Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell

5.0

Got to borrow an ARC. So excited!

I really, really liked Eleanor & Park. I LOVED Fangirl. Spot-on college setting (read days before a reunion with my dearest college friends, so I'm extra nostalgic.), including a fabulous romance. A main character who has her problems, and they don't get magically solved by the end. Yet the end is beautifully satisfying. A reminder of the world of fanfiction that swirled around Harry Potter (one minor quibble--Simon and Baz kinda annoyed me). And descriptions of the writing process that made me want to get back in the writing groove.

One of the best books I've read this year. Worth pre-ordering--and then blocking out a weekend to devour it in one wonderful, long gulp. Cannot wait to discuss this one.
