Fangirl
Description of book
A love story about opening your heart, by Rainbow Rowell, the New York Times bestselling author of Eleanor & Park.
Cath and Wren are identical twins, and until recently they did absolutely everything together. Now they're off to university and Wren's decided she doesn't want to be one half of a pair any more – she wants to dance, meet boys, go to parties and let loose. It's not so easy for Cath. She's horribly shy and has always buried herself in the fan fiction she writes, where she always knows exactly what to say and can write a romance far more intense than anything she's experienced in real life.
Without Wren, Cath is completely on her own and totally outside her comfort zone. She's got a surly room-mate with a charming, always-around boyfriend, a fiction-writing professor who thinks fan fiction is the end of the civilized world, a handsome classmate who only wants to talk about words . . . And she can't stop worrying about her dad, who's loving and fragile and has never really been alone.
Now Cath has to decide whether she's ready to open her heart to new people and new experiences, and she's realizing that there's more to learn about love than she ever thought possible . . .
Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell comes with special bonus material; the first chapter from Rainbow's irresistible novel Carry On.

Tolles Buch! Endlich mal eine introvertierte Protagonistin, die nicht nach der Hälfte des Buches zur Partygängerin wird und ihren Charakter für den Mann umkrempelt. Sehr erfrischend, tolle Charaktere und sehr süße Love Story!

Börjar som en ganska lovande, gullig, halvrolig YA-bok med en introvert huvudperson men utvecklas till en, i mitt tycke, ganska dåligt skriven bok med orealistiska karaktärer och många triggers. Cath beskrivs som en fangirl som föredrar folk online framför irl, och som har problem med sociala situationer, men hennes beteende tyder mer på NPF och då hennes far har bipolaritet borde det nog bemötas snarare än kallas ”crazy” och ”insane” som här. Hennes kille har inlärningssvårigheter och hans strategier är väl utarbetade, tills han blir ihop med Cath och verkar spendera all tid med att titta på henne när hon skriver. Fokus ligger hela tiden på Cath och hennes killes behov av hjälp verkar författaren glömma bort (i likhet med många andra personer och/eller delar av storyn). Både Cath och hennes syster har tvivelaktiga matvanor. Systern har alkoholproblem och vid ett tillfälle nämns oförklarliga blåmärken i systerns ansikte. Droger nämns (troligen medicin men ingen förklaring ges.)

Man fühlt sich sofort zurück in die eigene Fangirl-Zeit versetzt! Fantastisch gelesen und inhaltlich solide.
