Simon Snow is the worst Chosen One who's ever been chosen.
That's what his roommate, Baz, says. And Baz might be evil and a vampire and a complete git, but he's probably right.
Half the time, Simon can't even make his wand work, and the other half, he starts something on fire. His mentor's avoiding him, his girlfriend broke up with him, and there's a magic-eating monster running around, wearing Simon's face. Baz would be having a field day with all this, if he were here--it's their last year at the Watford School of Magicks, and Simon's infuriating nemesis didn't even bother to show up.
Carry On is a ghost story, a love story and a mystery. It has just as much kissing and talking as you'd expect from a Rainbow Rowell story - but far, far more monsters.

Carry On is okay and not very special. It is a fantasy novel, more or less like Harry Potter. Simon and his friends were students of Watford School of Magicks. They had a common enemy, they fought him, and they won. Quite standard-plot for a fantasy story.
Carry On is an LGBT novel as well. Yet, I did not think that it had explored much in the love-area. Overall, Carry On is merely okay for me. Sorry.
It is not Harry Potter, no. BUT, I was so thrilled reading this book, and I finished reading this only for couple hours. Oh, God. Rainbow Rowell did a great job. She poured down her thoughts into beautiful words. It's about a whole new magical world, and I can live in it. She carved her stories beautifully and I tell you guys what, go read it, because no reviews are good enough to describe this book.
