A solid easy read. Good story, good pace, and a plenty of enjoyable moments.
Enjoyed this chick-lit book! Quirky characters, endearing plot and satisfying love story.
I was about to cry when I realized the last page of this book was the end (damn you iPad).
I love this book. Love. Love love love love love love. Love.
A million and a half stars, and I am so mad that I have nothing left to read by Rainbow Rowell.

I would honestly give this more like 4.5 stars, and that's just cause it seemed to kind of drag on until it got to the climax, which was basically right at the end and gave me almost no time to process what happened before it was over. I have to admit though, that ending was perfect, and I know I'll sound like a complete dork to say this, but it made me swoon. Just good job Rainbow Rowell.
I really like Rainbow Rowell's stuff--even still, this took me a really long time to get through. Whereas the rest of her stuff I just read like crazy, finishing it in days, this one actually took me weeks to finish.
I think it's because I found Lincoln to be pretty boring. Which, sure, fine, your every day person *is* pretty boring--but Lincoln was exceptionally so. So, I didn't really have all that much tied to him and his successes. Neither did I have ties to Beth and Jennifer.
Perhaps this is because I read "Hit Reply" by Rocki St. Claire years ago, and it was similar to this but much better/more readable.
In the end, I just didn't care. I'd like to give 2.5 stars, but I'll go with 3 just because Rowell has entertained me so much in the past.

Attachments is a love story, albeit one that’s a bit outside the usual boy-meets-girl mold. In this version of 20th century love, boy doesn’t meet girl, exactly — he snoops through her email files instead.
My full review is here, but here's my quick snapshot:
Attachments is sweet, romantic, funny, and warm-hearted, and surprised me by being much more affecting than I’d anticipated. It’s a great love story, well-suited to a lonely world in which people connect best via their devices and screens. At its heart, Attachments is about real, live, human connection — how rare it is to find it, and how special it can be. Check it out! It’s a quick, satisfying read that’ll leave you with a smile on your face.

I loved this book more than I can say. The female friendship was perfect and relatable. I laughed, I cried, and I got emotionally invested in Jennifer, Beth and Lincoln’s lives! I cannot recommend this book enough.
