5.0

I don't think I have enough words to describe how much I love Fangirl. I read it first as a freshman in high school and today almost 10 years later I still love it just as much if not more. I was so afraid to reread it but it held up so well.  I really enjoyed listing to the the audiobook this time, it added a lot to the story, especially switching narrators to add a distinction between Cath's story and her writing. 

Cath, Levi, and Regan are so interesting and unique. Cath is shy and doesn't want to make any friends when she starts college. She only cares about writing Carry On. Levi lights up every room and is the definition of perfect. Regan is snarky and sassy and I love her friendship with Cath. But of course they aren't perfect and that's why I love them so much, they feel so real. 

My only real negative is that I wish it was longer. I feel like there could have been more at the end and it was a little rushed.
