Which Team Are You? : The Rainbow Rowell Edition


I basically just post a book series every week and have people vote on what team they are. I know the YA Sisterhood does the YA Crush Tournament, but I just want to find out how much you guys like one love interest over another, in one series.

Last week's poll was over Team Jace or Team Simon from Cassandra Clare’s The Mortal Instruments series. Team Simon won! 


Before I move on to this week's WTAY, I have to say that I normally stop checking the polls the Friday before I post the next WTAY on that Sunday. Because I didn't tell you guys this, I'm still going to count the votes that came in for Simon on Saturday.

Also, I don't think this is an issue, but I just want to ask people to not abuse the system and vote multiple times for the same person. Let everyone's vote count please. (If you want to vote once for each guy, that's okay. Sometimes it's tough to choose). I'll start putting all of this info at the end of each post so the rules are clear. Thanks for participating!

So for this edition of “Which Team Are You?” I’m going to ask you who your pick of hunky man-flesh is from Rainbow Rowell’s young adult books, Fangirl and Eleanor and Park

You can choose from:

1) Park


or 2) Levi


I’m Team Levi because Fangirl is my favorite book of all time! It’s like my life, only better! If you had to choose one, who would it be, and why? If you haven’t read the books (How is that even possible!?), who do you think sounds more appealing from summaries below:

Two misfits.
One extraordinary love.

Eleanor... Red hair, wrong clothes. Standing behind him until he turns his head. Lying beside him until he wakes up. Making everyone else seem drabber and flatter and never good enough...Eleanor.

Park... He knows she'll love a song before he plays it for her. He laughs at her jokes before she ever gets to the punch line. There's a place on his chest, just below his throat, that makes her want to keep promises...Park.

Set over the course of one school year, this is the story of two star-crossed sixteen-year-olds—smart enough to know that first love almost never lasts, but brave and desperate enough to try.


A coming-of-age tale of fan fiction, family and first love.

Cath is a Simon Snow fan.

Okay, the whole world is a Simon Snow fan...

But for Cath, being a fan is her life—and she’s really good at it. She and her twin sister, Wren, ensconced themselves in the Simon Snow series when they were just kids; it’s what got them through their mother leaving.

Reading. Rereading. Hanging out in Simon Snow forums, writing Simon Snow fan fiction, dressing up like the characters for every movie premiere.

Cath’s sister has mostly grown away from fandom, but Cath can’t let go. She doesn’t want to.

Now that they’re going to college, Wren has told Cath she doesn’t want to be roommates. Cath is on her own, completely outside of her comfort zone. She’s got a surly roommate with a charming, always-around boyfriend, a fiction-writing professor who thinks fan fiction is the end of the civilized world, a handsome classmate who only wants to talk about words... And she can’t stop worrying about her dad, who’s loving and fragile and has never really been alone.

For Cath, the question is: Can she do this?

Can she make it without Wren holding her hand? Is she ready to start living her own life? Writing her own stories?

And does she even want to move on if it means leaving Simon Snow behind?
