Gena/Finn by Kat Helgeson, Hannah Moskowitz

4.0

I don't know what I expected from this book, but I liked what I received. The draw for this novel was simply that it was about internet fandom and a friendship forged online. It sounded relateable and fun, so I gave it a shot.

I didn't expect to read it in one go, but once I started the format (the novel is composed entirely of blog posts, private messages, etc.) made it extremely easy to read and difficult to put down. By the time I was a third of the way through, I'd already made the decision to finish it.

As a whole, I loved this book. It covered topics I wasn't expecting and touched on some very real problems and issues, and dealt with those well, in my opinion. I loved that there were LGTBTQ characters, although that particular storyline seemed a little muddled by the end. I loved how unexpected certain events were.

All in all, I liked it. There were some things I didn't like so much, but as a whole I really enjoyed it.
