Hot take:
Cath in fangirl absolutely did plagiarize.
Not because fan fiction is plagiarizing because it’s not. But her professor asked her to write a story from the perspective of an unreliable narrator - the point of the assignment was to create an unreliable narrator. Cath did not do this, she used someone else’s character. Yes, she created her own story but that was not what the assignment was about. I am 90% sure there was no reference to the original creator of the character or the original novel on a reference or acknowledgement page. You are required to do this for ANYTHING that is not common knowledge or else it’s plagiarism. You reference Harry Potter as a allegory - cite it. You make a comparison to a sport in your essay - cite it. You read a cute rom-com and it inspires a story for your English class - CITE IT.
Yes if she didn’t include the name she would have most likely gotten away with it. But if she did that - she still should have cited her inspiration for the character!
I just did a module on Academic Integrity for one of my classes and I could not stop thinking about this.

finished fangirl today… pretty good. i like it a lot. maybe i’ll post a review when i find time. but to keep it short:
so well written dialogue and relationships! rainbow rowell’s great at writing relations. i could really feel the connection between cath and her father and sister — as well as the atmosphere in every scene.
the characters were unlikable for the right amount of time and became provokative the exact same time as to cath. rowell is a talented writer who knows how get us to feel and react they way she sees us meant to when she deems necessary.
the tone of the book’s amazing and different from elanor & park by a landslide. very different stories and books. that’s normally really hard for other writers (or they just never change their feel or style) anyhow: it was soo impressive to have such a different story and tone and still feel rowell on every page.
i liked fangirl a whole lot! and i enjoyed taking notes and going back to read my thought process and impressions.
yeah this was basically my review.. guess i had time after all

Best Quotes From 'Fangirl'
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
"I'm not really a book person." "That may be the most idiotic thing you've ever said to me."
'To really be a nerd, she'd decided, you had to prefer fictional worlds to the real one.'
"Read to me sweetheart."
"I'm scared of everything. And I'm crazy. Like maybe you think I'm a little crazy but I only let people see the tip of my crazy iceberg. Underneath this veneer of slightly crazy and socially inept, I'm a complete disaster."
"I choose you over everyone."
"Real life was something happening in her peripheral vision."
"There is nothing more profound than creating something out of nothing."
"Why do we write fiction? [...] to disappear."
"Tomorrow & Tomorrow & Tomorrow."

"I'm such an idiot. I can't even go nine hours without seeing you."
"How do you not like the Internet? That’s like saying, 'I don’t like things that are convenient. And easy. I don’t like having access to all of mankind’s recorded discoveries at my fingertips. I don’t like light. And knowledge'."

I just started rereading Fangirl for like, the millionth time... And dude, I love Levi so much.
But not only him, also Reagan.

So pretty! Happy 10th anniversary to one of my favourite books of all time. I have read my original copy over and over so many times and I can tell this one will get just as much love with the lovely canvas feel of the cover, I can't stop touching it ❤️

I am inquiring for information pertaining to your Fangirl Alternate Universe.
why are you still awake at this late hour. (I am still awake at this late hour bc I just finished reading Fangirl.) Anyway,
Adrien as Cath, Felix as Wren, Marinette as Levi, Luka as Reagan.
I sincerely doubt you've read Fangirl so I will, of course, elaborate.
Adrien and Felix (identical twins in this AU) are starting their first year of college together in some Midwestern state, probably Missouri because I'm rather fond of Missouri (I'd do my current state in the Northeast but the original state is set in Nebraska and it really needs that Midwestern vibe tbh.)
Adrien writes fanfiction. Lots and lots and lots of fanfiction. He lives in fanfiction. He loves it. After his father left, it kept him safe - fanfiction means something.
(About what? TBD. I'm considering doing something witty and making it about superheroes, someone suggested Naruto, I could always keep it Simon Snow - I did read Carry On a few years ago - but the main point is, he likes fanfiction. Probably gay fanfiction.)
After so many years together, Felix is now insisting they part ways for college, and Adrien - to his horror - has to deal with a randomly assigned roommate.
This ends up being Luka Couffaine. Who is... different. A little bit older. Cooler, more confident. He decidedly does not write fanfiction - and he's almost certainly not someone Adrien could talk with about fanfiction. And now Felix is pushing away, too, leaving Adrien alone.
Luka's girlfriend (girlfriend?) Marinette is also constantly hanging around the dorm, and despite everything, she's... different. Kind. Sweet. She seems interested in Adrien for who he is.
(AKA one of the most self indulgent AUs I've ever made. Kart, do you remember when I messaged you about the fake marriage AU and gave almost no context? I know you know almost nothing about that AU but more self indulgent then even that AU, which is very fucking self indulgent. Also, they'd both have the same "Alternate Universe - America" tag.)

"That moment," she told Cath, "when you realize that a guy's looking at you differently — that you're taking up more space in his field of vision. That moment when you know he can't see past you anymore."

Fangirl Review
★★★★★ - 5 stars
“Emergency Dance Party!”
Tumblr media
Cather Avery loves Simon Snow. The World of Mages is her home. Writing ‘Carry On, Simon’ is her life. College most certainly is not the place for her. Her identical twin sister, Wren Avery, loves to go out and drink; College is definitely her home; partying, with her new best friend, is her life and the World of Mages most certainly is not her place anymore. The two twins used to do everything together but now, Wren is living a new life without Cath (and without Simon Snow) at college, but for Cath letting go of the world she holds so dear is not so easy. In this heart-warming tale of romance, friendship, and self-discovery, readers witness Cath Avery develop from so much more than just a fangirl.
Fangirl is Rainbow Rowell’s welcoming handshake into The World of Mages, Simon Snow, and Baz Pitch. With excerpts from Cath’s fanfiction ‘Carry On, Simon’, other fanfictions from the fictional ‘FanFixx.Net’, and the book series written by ‘Gemma L. Telsie’ (The Fangirl Universe version of Rowell), we take our first steps into the world of wonder, magic, and goats…
Alongside the Harry-Potter-inspired Simon Snow Universe, we experience college life through Cather’s eyes as she meets new people, including her confident but blunt roommate, Reagan, and the charming, overly attentive, Levi. As a result, throughout the course of the book, both Introverts and Extroverts are well represented. It is most common, that readers relate to Cath: her quiet, bookish nature; her nerves at the concept of going to college, or even the extreme amount of time she spends hidden away from the world in her bedroom. In contrast with Cather’s introversion, Reagan and Levi are both extroverts, attempting to drag her out of the confines of her own brain, with a varying success rate.
Though Fangirl is often comical and light-hearted, it does take on a range of serious issues. The characters have flaws, just like real people, including smoking and drinking too often. Familial issues are also a core part of the novel, along with the mental health issues that can come as a part of such circumstances. This adds to the realism of a large proportion of the book, balancing it out with the fantasy, magic-filled sections, allowing readers to feel as though the events of Fangirl could be happening to anyone: the random person they walked past on the street, an acquaintance at work or school, a friend, even the reader themself. 
A fantastic contemporary YA novel, Fangirl is rated an average of 4 stars on Goodreads. Rowell has created a novel for geeks and nerds alike; for the lovers of books, music, and film; for the romantic dreamers; for the fantasy-word escapists; for the students; for the writers, and for everyone who is a part of a fandom.
