kindred spirits world book day edition 2016

The plot revolves around Avery getting some treatment for her spots and becoming beautiful as they disappear. I’ve never seen that dealt with as a serious topic in a book before, which seems ridiculous because a lot of teenagers suffer from it, and if not from full blown acne, then definitely from the odd pimple or two. This book was really refreshing because the main character, Avery, had acne. It turned out that they both knew of each other before the line, as if that would make up for the shortness of the story. The one thing that niggled at us both was the convenience of the relationship between Elena and Gabe. It was something you could enjoy for an hour, and be sucked in by. The scenario was really unique and the characters were witty. We could both talk for a long time about fandom culture, so we won’t, but just know it sparks some interesting thought. Gabe even has this little speech about nerd/geek culture and how it’s cool to be part of a fandom nowadays.

Not only is this a romance story, but a story about being a fan of something, and how we need to show the world we like something, especially online. Gabe and Troy are the only other people in the line. She’s already bought a ticket online, but it’s the ritual of devotion to the franchise, no matter how unnecessary. Elena, our protagonist, decides to camp out in front of the movie theatre a few days before the release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens. This was a classic Rainbow Rowell story in that the romance was adorable, and follows the same kind of fangirl culture, similar to Fangirl itself. Both of these stories were available for £1 on World Book Day, March 3rd, and are still available as e-editions.
