Rating: Exactly a 4 
 This book took me a while to get into, but once I did, it was fantastic. I loved the story of Cath, but I can't say I enjoyed the fan-fiction portion of the book very much, at least in beginning. It took me, maybe 150 pages to realize I was actually drawn in. The plot was good, but seemed to be a missing a little something, but I can seem to put my finger on it. I started off missing the "spark" I expected from Rainbow Rowell, but I realized I was interested later on, and I feel it was just because I didn't really like the characters all that much at the start. 
 Every character was well developed, and Cath was extremely relatable; the awkward, shy girl that doesn't want to do anything but hid in the corner of her room and write. The book as a whole was absolutely fantastic. I'm not sure that I want to read "Carry On" after not enjoying the fan fiction, but I'll give it a try because Rainbow is no doubt an exceptional writer. There is something really magical about her writing, but it's hard to explain. In the beginning, I was immediately turned off by the fact that she wrote in 3rd person, because it doesn't seem to typical, but by the end, I realized it truly brought the book to a whole new level. There just something about the book that just so unique, so special, and so different from anything I have ever read.
