There is an Afrikaans (I am from South Africa and Afrikaans is my mother tongue) author who wrote a similar book. Loved it so much and was fortunate to read it before my mom passed away. Will look into that one as well. Wishing you a lovely week and good luck with all your projects!

It's not quite a sequel to <i>Fangirl</i>, since it's not actually Cath's writing or the actual-book-within-the-book, but Rowell playing with the characters and writing them as herself. I adore it, anyway! Hope you enjoy it.Nickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17214515973619585872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5973602932665851374.post-81720732042106272302016-07-09T13:29:25.316-07:002016-07-09T13:29:25.316-07:00Thank you, Diane.
