Did a re-read of the first two Simon Snow books ahead of the release of Any Way the Wind Blows, and this time I read them by audiobook! I highly recommend the audiobooks, Euan Morton is a delightful narrator. (Side note, his son is Young Sheldon? Wild.) I've read Carry On at least three times - it's such a comfort read for me. I enjoyed it just as much this time around, although with each reread my patience with Simon lessens, lol.

I love the characters, but there were a couple of problematic lines in here.

I find the second half of this book to be really fun and engaging, but the first half of the book drags for me.
