This book is pure, wonderful, magic. I love Rainbow Rowell's writing style and story-telling. Another great read by her!
The gay Harry Potter I didn't know I needed.
I don't think I'd ever been this riveted to a story since the folk of the air trilogy. This book had me on a chokehold that I kept rushing backlogs just so I could continue reading. Obsessed with Simon and Baz's dynamic.
If you're not a fan of changing perspectives in stories, the read is gonna suck. But trust that it all ties the story together in the eventual unfolding.
Re-readability is so strong with this one. The slowburn was definitely slowburning.
For the Y/A enthusiasts, the enemies to lovers girlies, the golden retriever x black cat trope enjoyers.

It's an amazing story and I really recommend this book
2015: 1 really enjoyed this book! It is more like a 4.5/5 stars but I couldn't just give it 4! It was incredibly similar to Harry Potter, which I totally was expecting, and that is the reason I couldn't give it the 5 stars. That being said I LOVED THIS BOOK! OMG the characters are sooooo good and BAZ ah my sassy little baby, I love him so much HE'S JUST PERFECT AND HE CAN BE MY BOYFRIEND EVEN THO I AM A GIRL! I just really loved this book and of course there were flaws but it was just amazing and I love this world and cannot wait to revisit it in the future!
2019: I definitely love this book but I didn’t love it as much as the first time. I love the characters and the plot is so fun and nostalgic but I felt like it dragged in some parts? And the character dynamic is great but it wasn’t enough to drive me to the next scene. I don’t know I’m starting Wayward Son today so hopefully that’s amazing!

This book is evidence that just because you like someone, doesn’t mean you have to like their interests. I like Cath from Fangirl, but I do not share her obsession with Simon Snow. I’m also not interested in Harry Potter enough to enjoy this story within a story.
REALLY enjoyed Carry On by Rainbow Rowell, enough that it actually deserves 4.5 stars. It is a consuming, propulsive read, with so many fun elements, despite some clear derivations from a certain, popular male 'chosen one' story. Even though I didn't realize the protagonist character is a direct transplant from Fangirl, I did not feel as though I was missing any important contextual information.

I will read anything Rainbow Rowell writes. ANYTHING.
I loved Fangirl SO much so how could I not read Carry On?! And I was not disappointed. It was glorious.
