i haven't even finished this book yet, but it's already possibly my fave book of the year. i loved it right from the start, not shocking considering it's a YA fantasy book about some magical 18 yr olds finishing up their last year at magic high school. simon is a great main character/chosen one; i love how grounded/humble'sh he is, i guess partly b/c he can't control his magic well and doesn't know anything about his parents (was it davy and lucy?!). then once baz showed up i was totally digging him as a character, even more so once he mentioned how he hates/is tots in love with "snow". i found his character so compelling, really bringing new light to the whole tortured lovesick vampire, which is impressive given how much buffy i've seen. i was let surprised that he was gay, but i also loved it. and then fast forward to just over half way through when he and simon kiss, i can't even! part of me feels like i should have seen simon being gay sooner, considering he was pretty obsessed with baz, but love/hate being part of the same coin et al...i think i finally sensed it only right before simon kisses him, when he follows baz into the fire he's created and gets all close to him. it legit warms my heart the way their characters speak about each other, and at this point i don't want the book to end. ALL DONE. Loved it all the way through. loved that simon and baz end up together while simon and penny get a flat together. interesting that simon never learns that he was davey (the mage) and lucy's kid. glad agatha ran away to cali.
