Fangirl, Vol. 1

the soft spot i have for this book ❤️

I LOVE THE MANGA AS MUCH AS I LOVE THE BOOK!!! AHHAHA ITS amazingggg!!
When is 2/4 coming out?!?! I CANT WAIT!!
I recommend reading this if you have already read the book coz this one shows Cath's feelings and thoughts,etc and its so flipping cute!
And wow I LOVE LEVI!!! He is soo cuteee and adorable

Sadly the manga art style did not really connect to the original story for me. :/

I read the actual book and that says something, but then again it is manga form so I guess not really shocking. Anyway I was iffy about reading this. I am not a major YA fan as I was in the day but this was actually good writing and art.

Cath is a girl with social anxiety, I get it. I don't have it majorly but I have seen people who have. Funny enough I took creative writing classes in college and have seen a girl with social anxiety battle it out in our class. She straight up refused to read her work, which sucked because I felt like she would have written an amazing piece.

ANYWHO back to the story, it have a good outline on how Cath is and how she is with people.

The only reason it isn't 5 is because of how the book is broken down, or lack of? There are no chapters or indication of where one ends and the other begins. It made it a bit confusing. Also her and Levi and Reagan are a confusing trio. I am sure I would understand more in the actual book but I will 9/10 not be listening to that story.

I did skip that whole Simon and Baz thing. I say skip, I skimmed, but it was meh for me. Though I am seeing a link to Simon and Levi... but that could be the artist. I kind of wished there was a more... defined thing with the trio before the volume ended but eh... nothing really to complain about.

5/5 for art (and cuteness)

This is Part 1 (of 4) of the manga adaptation. This might gain the book some new fans, but Cath is much hard to understand and empathize with here without her inner monologue and motivations.

How I missed it!!
Now I want to reread fangirl asap!

Acabo de terminar este manga y me ha encantado. Me lo pude comprar en cuanto salió y aunque me desilusionaba que estaba en inglés me lo compré de todos modos. Tal vez por eso tarde tanto en leerlo. Tiene solo unas 200 páginas que si sabes un buen inglés lees en uno o dos días.

M e ha gustado el formato manga en la historia ya que es muy fresco y cómodo de leer. Los dibujos son simplemente preciosos y ese tipo de dibujos que son más realistas o caricaturescos depende del contexto.
Lo único es que siento que la historia va un poco rápido( lo que es entendible ya que es un manga e 206 páginas)
nota:4.8/5
