Fangirl, by Rainbow Rowell, 438 pages
Cath is having a rough introduction to college. Her twin and only friend, Wren, has decided that they need to have some space; her roommate barely talks to her and has a boyfriend who never leaves; and school is sort of getting in the way of her writing her epic work of fanfiction for a sort of Harry Potter knockoff that will soon be ending. I don't think this was very story-driven, but just a sweet and occasionally funny work of fiction about growing up. Personally, Cath was a (sometimes painfully) relatable character for me. It did make me super excited about Carry On, the newest Rainbow Rowell book, because it's basically the work of fanfiction that Cath is writing during Fangirl.
