*This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review.

Despite her best efforts, Cath is forced to realize she can’t keep her twin sister, Wren, so close to her as she’s allowed to have her own life. Not only that, Cath can’t help but develop feelings for her roommate’s boyfriend, Levi.

For awhile I’m reading this and thinking things were soo clean and convenient but I’m glad to say without spoilers that thankfully changes. I want to see Cath growing and exploring college life in her own way with some actual issues; not going full on party girl or heading into after school special territory but just enjoying herself. I look forward to the next one. 4 out of 5.

Lenni Reviews: “Fangirl” Vol 1, by Rainbow Rowell

*This book has been given to me in exchange for an honest review.

Embarking on her freshman year of college, reserved and shy Cath would rather stay neck deep in her fanfiction of Simon Snow than indulge in the typical freshman experience like her twin sister, Wren. But despite her most sincere wishes to be left alone, her audacious roommate and her boyfriend open her eyes to something more than solitary fandom.

I found this unbearably adorable. I thought Cath would have this super catty roommate that bullied her and her roommate’s boyfriend would have ill intentions but this is amazingly pure and I adore it. It’s almost too pure since I remember college and while I was a good girl and went to class (yes… I was that lame) I saw some shit. It’s sweet that Cath has some decent people around her having her back; even her twin, Wren. Wren wants her own life but it’s not like she just tosses her sister to the wolves. Although, this ends on a cliffhanger so we’ll see how that holds up.

I haven’t read the original novel this is based on, (but I will) so I can’t speak to accuracy but I liked this. Got me all nostalgic and everything! 4 out of 5

Fangirl Loot Crate

I was a little leery of this crate, to be honest. I was concerned it would be pandering nonsense but I actually love all this stuff!

DC Bombshell figure
Star Trek purse
Fangirls coloring book (it also came with tiny pencils)
Marvel women dress

And yes, those are tiny tribbles on the purse! Tiny tribbles!! I’m in love with it. The dress is fantastic and fits like a dream, the figure is cute, and if you’ve been on my Instagram lately, I have been practicing my coloring with coloring books so it’s just an all around useful and fun box. I’m so glad I got this!
