Fangirl

by Rainbow Rowell · 2013

When twin sisters Cath and Wren are forced to leave the safety of their shared bedroom for college, Cath’s world—built on the beloved Simon Snow series— begins to crumble. A devoted fan‑fiction writer, she has spent years living through the magical universe of her favorite books, using them to survive the loss of their mother. Now, with a new dorm, a skeptical professor who dismisses fan fiction, a charismatic but demanding roommate, and a handsome classmate who speaks only in literary theory, Cath must confront the question of who she will become without her sister’s steady hand. As she navigates love, family, and the fragile balance of her father’s wellbeing, she discovers that the greatest story she can write is her own.
