First I didn't find anything charming in the fact that he apparently harassed his room mate for years on the assumption that he was evil and only deserved death.
Most importantly I found his thoughts regarding his (ex) girlfriend entirely disturbing: after stating that he wasn't sure they were a good fit together anyway, he spins into a completely toxic behaviour when /she/ seems to want to break up. "She can't reject me", "She can't reject me for /him/", "He can't have her", "Maybe she isn't in her right mind if she rejects me", and last but not least, "I'll kill that guy and this way he won't have her."
There isn't a moment in the book that criticises the character's behaviour in this chapter in any way. What the hell?

If you've ever wanted an escapist, human, lovable, queer Harry Potter, go pick up Carry On right now. The book centers around the 'Chosen One', Simon Snow, who attends a Hogwarts-style magical boarding school. He and his friends learn more about how their world works, make mistakes, fall in love, eat scones and unravel mysteries. I cannot stress how good this book is.
