Fangirl Chapter 9 Summary

  • Cath has an hour to kill before she meets up with her ride to Omaha, so she goes to Starbucks.
  • Surprise—it's Levi's Starbucks, and he's working.
  • He's also being gregarious and charming to everyone, because he's Levi, and that's what he does.
  • Cath orders a grande coffee, but Levi insists on making her his specialty, a pumpkin mocha breve, instead. Whatever you say, Mr. Fancy Pants Barista.
  • Back in Omaha, Cath's dad is hard at work on an advertising pitch for a campaign for a food product called Gravioli.
  • He's also failed to turn on the lights or buy any groceries. Thus: taco truck for dinner, and taco truck all weekend.
  • When they're not eating tacos, her dad's manically working on the Gravioli pitch, and Cath's working on Carry On, Simon.
  • On Sunday night, when her dad takes her to meet her ride back to Lincoln, he drops the bombshell: He's been talking to her mom, Laura.
  • Laura, it seems, wants to see Cath and Wren; she wants to have a relationship with them after all these years.
  • Cath says she won't even think about it, and is angry with her dad for informing Wren via email instead of talking to them in person, together.
  • Except, of course, that Wren's not there, because partying is more important.
