What a fun story! I came for the whole Carry On Simon Snow aspect, and I stayed for Cath. I could relate to Cath on so many levels, and I enjoyed watching her development as a person and with others. The fan fiction parts were engaging, but I actually found myself wanting to fast forward through them because I cared more about what was happening with Cath (and Cath and Levi). Speaking of Levi, yes. Absolutely loved him with my entire being. I really liked Cath's dad and Reagan too. Wren, on the other hand, got on my nerves. By the end, I was sad it was over and was left wanting more to read. The sign of a good book.
