just finished up my freshman year at UNL and thought i would reread this. rainbow is my op but this book is so cute & i love being able to understand the locations (and the fact that half the characters are named after buildings at UNL for some reason?)

I really enjoyed this book. It has a lot of great moments and many great quotes, and it fits so comfortably because Rowell is talking about my world and my people. I didn't like it quite as much as Attachments or Eleanor & Park, though, and that's probably because I found Cath such a frustrating character at times. More complete review to come.

I had heard so many good things about this book that I just needed to read it so this book is based on cath and her star in a new chapter in her life if at college she thought you would be sharing the room with her twin sister but this was not the case as she didn't want to share a room with her
Cath does fanfiction
What an amazing book. I read Harry Potter when I was a kid . This book was a great picture of what that would mean to you growing up reading this and waiting for the books in this new age of reading
This book deals with other, important problems of life, like estranged parents, mental illnesses, alcoholism or social anxiety. And it still manages to be ball of sunshine

As a college student who is heavily invested in fandom (although not as heavy as Cath), I related to this book on a deep level. There are certain details that were missing that I thought would have added to the story, but her writing style is easy and captivating. Nothing too dramatic happens, but I think it's the simple, almost mundane tellings of everyday college life, friends, and falling in love that make this story so touching. Sweet, sexy, silky, addictive, a wonderful read.

I really enjoyed this book! The romance was very cute! I love how this book incorporated family dynamics too. I like how this was set in college and dealt with relatable themes such as anxiety at starting college and more. Definitely would like to read Carry On by Rainbow Rowell next.

I give it a 4.5. I couldn’t put it down. The story was new and exciting. I was not a fan personally of the Simon Snow chapters that came after Cath’s chapter (which is odd since I loved Carry On). I liked when Cath read her fic to Levi, but was not a huge fan of the other stuff.
