“In new situations, all the trickiest rules are the ones nobody bothers explain to you, and the ones you can’t google.” This quotes relates with the main character exploring her new place and seeking to fit in. College student Cath, has moved into a new college dorm. She is a fan fiction writer of the book series called Simon Snow. Cath is devastated when she finds out her twin sister is not her roommate. Cath has difficulties trying to find a comfort zone in her new dorm. She is afraid to express herself and meet new people. Teenagers can relate to Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell, because teenagers can sometimes feel afraid to show their real selves, and set out to make new friends.
Ever since Cath moved into the dorm, she’s been bugged about having a stranger has her roommate, instead of her sister. Wren, is trying hard to convince Cath, that she needs to try to experiences. “ It’s college, it’s supposed to be an adventure. We have to meet new people.” Cath replies “ I don’t need new people, please don’t make me do this alone.” This quote is showing that Cath is not a fan of adventures. She doesn’t like changing to new situations. This quote also makes me think that she is used to sharing a room with her twin sister for 18 years, and wants to continue this. Cath and Wren are very different people. Cath is very independent and likes to do things alone, while Wren is very fierce, and loves trying to experiences. Despite the differences, Cath and Wren have a strong relationship.
Cath also has obstacles trying to communicate with other college students, especially her roommate, Reagan. Cath says to her sister “ We talk, she says would you mind closing the window, and i say that's fine. Also, “hey.” We exchange “heys” daily. Sometimes twice daily.” This humorous quote is expressing that Cath isn’t really trying hard to start a conversation with Reagan. She is always busy thinking about her sister or working on her writing,. Cath also can’t accept the fact that she has to live with a stranger, and is expected to get used to her so fast. I realized that Cath has trouble communicating with Reagan because they are very different from each other. Reagan, loves to express herself, always holding a cigarette in her and and attending clubs and parties. Cath stays in the dorm, either eating protein bars or writing fan fiction stories. Since they don’t have much in common, it's hard for Cath to communicate with her roommate.
All, in all. Cath is a very shy college student who has a passion for writing. She enjoyed living with her twin sister and her dad peacefully. But now, she is having a hard time getting used to changes in her college dorm. Cath really cherishes her sister, and always wants to spend time with her. Cath does not really engage in conversations with her roommate, either. I believe writing stories is very comforting and valuable for Cath. She cherishes her readers and improves her writing with the comments she receives, Cath values writing a whole lote
