Rainbow Rowell is a national treasure.

I love Rainbow Rowell. She appeals to my super geek and allows for us to realize that some of our obsession get in the way of real life. I love her characters even when they don't always act the way I want them to. It's a great read. ...more

There is so much to love about this book. I love the characters for starters. Cather is a great protagonist that I do identify with. I also love the way the author touches upon fan fiction and just dealing with the world outside of it.

Well written and felt it was a lovely story. I plan on reading more by this author.

I don't even read fanfic about things that a) are real and b) I like, so I really couldn't bring myself to read fanfic about a fictional-fictional boy wizard. I ended up skipping most of the excerpts, which is probably the reason why I didn't love this as much as the rest of the world seems to. ...more

Aww...classic teen lit done right. Not only do I now want a Levi, I might actually have some respect for fan fiction. Almost enough to actually want to read some...

I absolutely adored this book. Rowell does such a good job of writing relatable characters. She combines humor and pathos so well. I was even having flashbacks to the awkwardness of being a college freshman, but in a good way.

If you found Cath insufferable when you started reading this book, keep reading. She gets much much better.

If you didn't find her insufferable, you're probably a better person that me.

Solidly delightful, with amusing interesting characters. I like the way Cath had anxiety disorder, talked about it, dealt with it, and was ok.

An enjoyable read. I was expecting a bit more from all the buzz it got.
