I don't know if I'm disappointed I left this book for last, or glad, because it was for the best by far. Rainbow Rowell has converted me over to one of her Fangirls. 
 Cather is so easy to relate with, I felt like I was reading about me, and I'm sure that plenty of other book worms felt the same. When she's talking about how no one tells you about the really hard questions, like where to stand, or how much food to take, or where to sit, I just wanted to jump up and down and scream. Yes! YES! This is what I feel about almost every new experience! Thank you for giving it words! I giggled at the parallels between Simon Snow and Harry Potter, and now I can't help but wonder if there isn't a Ron and Harry ship fanfic out there. (I'm sure there is... ack!) 
 I devoured this book in a day, I didn't want to put it down. It kept me up well past my usual bedtime, and now my eyes are all scratchy, but it was well worth it. The plot has great pacing, so that you're never bored. I will say that I wasn't a huge fan of all of the chapters and bits out of the other novels INSIDE the story. They didn't bother me as much when they were the inserts between the chapters, but I didn't really need all of that fanfic reading going on while I was waiting for something to happen between, well... spoilers. You'll have to read the book. 
 I loved the relationships and how they're interwoven. The secondary characters felt real and fleshed out to me, even Courtney who gets minimal page time. Wren I kind of disliked, but then came to love when I really stopped and thought about what she was going through, and what it was like to be a college freshman. 
 There was a part in the book when my heart stopped with Cather's, and I just wanted to cry. You'll probably know it when you see it, or maybe it'll be a different part for you. I felt so much for her throughout the whole book, even when I wanted to reach in and shake her and tell her to get her shit together. 
 I really cannot say enough about how awesome this book is. Please pick it up and read it yourself. I know it's "in" right now, and it feels like everyone has already read it, and it's annoying or overwhelming, but just do it. Trust me on this one.
