Fangirl, Vol. 4: The Manga by Gabi Nam, Rainbow Rowell
3.0
i'm sorry but if you turn my teenage favorite books into graphic novels i am going to read them.
the ending feels a lot more abrupt in this version, to the extent that i ignored where it said "the end" and "volume 4/4" in the ebook and ignored where it says "the heartwarming final installment" in the synopsis and clicked on the series title to try to add the 5th volume to my tbr.
fangirl is my comfort book in some ways, but it's also my problematic fav: i don't like the simon snow parts, or the part where she submits fanfiction as an assignment, or the unresolved familial issues (more so here).
i love the anxiety representation (so #me) and the yearning (best part of romances).
neither to be found in here, so this was meh for me!
bottom line: i'll always have a soft spot for the original...but not for the adaptations.
