After reading Carry On, I decided to go to the book store and instantly buy the next two books.

And as fun as the beginning of the book was, unfortunately, the ending left me a bit disappointed.

I mean, don't get me wrong, it was extremely enjoyable and delightful to read. I still adore this book series and characters.

Buuuut, after all 300 pages, I don't know, the ending left me just a bit empty and disappointed. Like it was all leading up to something, and then the author was like "actually, you need to read another 500 pages to get to that something"

Still, extremely fun, love the story, adore the characters.

THIS is what I wanted Carry On to be. Big and silly, dumb and fun, not too serious, but all heart. And hella gay.

Whoever said this was disappointing didn't read the same book.

Over all it was good, I didn't hate it. What I did hate was the ending. I liked how everything flowed together at the end but the prologue literally made me throw the book down in frustration.
