Publishers Weekly (starred review) Stock up on copies-this one begs to be reread. Julie Beck, for The Atlantic The funny, wised-up dialogue, the tumultuous, sweet, and sexy love story- is grade-A Rowell.almost impossible to put down.

People Magazine Carry On is the fantasy book I didn't know I'd been waiting for for years.Rowell's mystery, magic, and political intrigue is the sexiest love story I've read in a long time. Time Magazine Full of heart and humor, this fantastical tale is a worthy addition to the wizarding-school genre.

It's as if Rowell turned the Harry Potter books inside out, and is showing us the marvelous, subversive stuffing inside. New York Times Book Review It's a brilliantly addictive, genuinely romantic story about teenagers who can't be neatly sorted into houses, coping with stress and loss and the confusion of just trying to be who they are. It's a powerful, politically minded allegory about sexual, ethnic and class identity - with a heady shot of teenage lust. Rowell imbues her magic with awe and spectacle. 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 a ghost story, a love story and a mystery. 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. His mentor's avoiding him, his girlfriend broke up with him, and there's a magic-eating monster running around, wearing Simon's face.

Half the time, Simon can't even make his wand work, and the other half, he starts something on fire. And Baz might be evil and a vampire and a complete git, but he's probably right. Named a Best Book of 2015 by Time Magazine, School Library Journal, Barnes & Noble, NPR, PopSugar, The Millions, and The News & Observer! Simon Snow is the worst Chosen One who's ever been chosen. About the Book Rainbow Rowell continues to break boundaries with Carry On, an epic fantasy following the triumphs and heartaches of Simon and Baz from her beloved bestseller Fangirl.
