#1 New York Times best seller!
Booklist Editors’ Choice 2015 - Youth!
Named a "Best Book of 2015" by Time Magazine, School Library Journal, Barnes & Noble, NPR, PopSugar, The Millions, and The News & Observer!
Simon Snow is the worst Chosen One who's ever been chosen.
That's what his roommate, Baz, says. And Baz might be evil and a vampire and a complete git, but he's probably right.
Half the time, Simon can't even make his wand work, and the other half, he starts something on fire. His mentor's avoiding him, his girlfriend broke up with him, and there's a magic-eating monster running around, wearing Simon's face. Baz would be having a field day with all this, if he were here--it's their last year at the Watford School of Magicks, and Simon's infuriating nemesis didn't even bother to show up.
Carry On - The Rise and Fall of Simon Snow is a ghost story, a love story and a mystery. It has just as much kissing and talking as you'd expect from a Rainbow Rowell story - but far, far more monsters.

Review
"Rowell imbues her magic with awe and spectacle. Its a powerful, politically minded allegory about sexual, ethnic and class identity - with a heady shot of teenage lust." ―New York Times Book Review
"It’s a brilliantly addictive, genuinely romantic story about teenagers who can’t be neatly sorted into houses, coping with stress and loss and the confusion of just trying to be who they are. It’s as if Rowell turned the Harry Potter books inside out, and is showing us the marvelous, subversive stuffing inside." ―Time Magazine
"Full of heart and humor, this fantastical tale is a worthy addition to the wizarding-school genre." ―People Magazine
"Carry On is the fantasy book I didn’t know I’d been waiting for for years...Rowell’s mystery, magic, and political intrigue is the sexiest love story I’ve read in a long time." ―Julie Beck, for The Atlantic
"The funny, wised-up dialogue, the tumultuous, sweet, and sexy love story― is grade-A Rowell...almost impossible to put down." ―Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Stock up on copies―this one begs to be reread." ―Booklist (starred review)
"With rock-solid worldbuilding, a sweet and believable romance subplot, and satisfying ending, Carry On is a monumentally enjoyable reading experience. Hand this to fans of Rowell, Harry Potter, love stories, and magic." ―School Library Journal (starred review)
"Carry On is a triumph. Thrilling and sexy, funny and shocking, deeply moving and very, very magical. Trust me, you have never, ever seen a wizard school like this." ―Lev Grossman, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Magicians trilogy
“Absolutely captivating.” ―Kirkus (starred review) on Fangirl
“Rowell manages to capture both the wildly popular universe of fanfic and the inside of an 18-year-old's head. Consider me a fangirl of this charming coming-of-age tale.” ―Entertainment Weekly on Fangirl
“A deliciously warm-hearted nerd power ballad destined for greatness.” ―New York Journal of Books on Fangirl
“A funny and tender coming-of-age story that's also the story of a writer finding her voice . . . touching and utterly real.” ―Publishers Weekly (starred review) on Fangirl
“The magic here is cast not with wands but with Rowell's incredible ability to build complex, vivid, troubling and triumphant relationships.” ―Booklist, starred review on Fangirl
“(A) charming coming-of-age novel . . . filled with complex subjects (such as divorce, abandonment, and mental illness) handled in a realistic manner, and the writing effortlessly and seamlessly weaves these threads together.” ―School Library Journal, starred review; Best Fiction Books of 2013, on Fangirl
“As funny as it is embarrassing, and as charming as it is true-to-geek-life . . . Fangirl is a cute and poignant read for fangirls and fanboys of all ages.” ―Tor.com on Fangirl
About the Author
Rainbow Rowell writes books. Sometimes she writes about adults (Attachments and Landline). Sometimes she writes about teenagers (Eleanor & Park, Fangirl and Carry On). But she always writes about people who talk a lot. And people who feel like they're screwing up. And people who fall in love.
When she's not writing, Rainbow is reading comic books, planning Disney World trips and arguing about things that don't really matter in the big scheme of things.
She lives in Nebraska with her husband and two sons.

Carry On- Simply Amazing!
By BabyMo
It’s probably not mandatory to read Rainbow Rowell’s Fangirl before reading Carry On, but it certainly helps. Fangirl’s protagonist Cath struggled with going away to college, being separated from her twin, and the role that Simon Snow fanfiction played in her new reality. Fangirl featured excerpts of both “canon” Simon Snow, and Cath’s fanfic spin on the global literary phenomenon.
Carry On is a full length Simon Snow novel. Simon Snow is similar to another series with a famous boy wizard, but it is wholly original. Carry On takes place during Simon’s eighth year at Watford, a school for magical children. Simon plays a unique role in the World of Mages; he is seen as the Chosen One, who will deliver them from evil. Namely, the Insidious Humdrum, who takes on the form of Simon as an eleven-year-old boy.
Simon has a best friend- Penelope, and a girlfriend- Agatha. Simon also has an archnemesis/roommate- Baz. When Baz doesn’t return at the beginning of term, Simon is suspicious. Is he planning something? Tensions are running high at Watford, and there is a divide between the Old Families and people who want social and political reforms.
When Baz finally returns at Watford, things are different. Instead of hating Baz, Simon is concerned about his welfare. And instead of wanting to kill Simon, Baz only wants to kiss him. As the World of Mages begins to crumble, Simon and Baz realize that they are stronger as allies than as enemies.
I loved this book. I loved everything about it. I loved Simon, and I loved Baz. I especially loved Penelope; she was smart and confident, and her fierce loyalty to Simon was so poignant. I loved the allusions to previous Simon Snow escapades that took place before Carry On; coming into the middle of the story was fascinating. I loved the way that Rowell developed her own language of magical spells by taking snippets of songs and popular phrases. I loved the multiple narrators; everyone has their own perspective, and the whole story wouldn’t have resonated as well if we only had Simon’s point of view. I loved the way that the tension between Simon and Baz built up slowly, so when they finally did come together, it made sense and it felt right.
I would absolutely recommend Carry On. I loved the Simon Snow excerpts in Fangirl, and I was so thrilled when Rainbow Rowell announced that she was going to write a Simon Snow novel. I devoured Carry On, and I know that this is a book that I am going to read multiple times. I have an Audible credit in my account, and I am going to use it to buy Carry On- probably as soon as I post this review! My only regret is that this is probably the end of Simon Snow- is receiving the rest of the series too much to ask for?

"Carry On" A Brilliant Spin on Simon and Baz
By Indiancoolaide
May I just start by saying I came into this book with phenomenally high expectations. I loved "Eleanor and Park" and "Fangirl," but "Fangirl" will always hold a special place in my heart. I fell in love with both Cath and Levi and Simon and Baz. Simon and Baz were a huge part of what made that book work, and reading the little vignettes always read like actual stories. What made me so excited for "Carry On" was the continence of a beautiful story done by an amazing author.
If you had asked me before reading this book, I would have said Rainbow Rowell had kind of dug herself into a hole on this one. Everyone who read (and obsessively studied) "Fangirl" like I did knows the general consensus of the story - a clich�d fanfiction done by crazy teenage fangirls (I myself am openly a part of this group) who write stories about a gay wizard and a gay wizard/vampire who controls his urges, in an amalgam of Harry Potter and Twilight. We all know how the story goes, as the little excerpts basically tell the story and we have all seen it before.
To have a reader come in with a full summary in their mind of how the story will play out would be a hard starting place for anyone. But Rowell delivers a witty, heart wrenching and nail biting story that kept my heartbeat racing from start to finish. She goes in recognizing the fact that readers know parts of the story, and doesn't delve into development, but rather rushes into the story with full speed ahead, reading like a fan made conclusion to a great series, or the original "Carry On" Cather slaved away on in "Fangirl." The juxtaposition of Simon's na�vet� and Baz's false confidence works perfectly, and the sexual tension is always subtly there. I found myself sighing over Baz many times and the original characters of Simon, Baz, the Mage, Penelope and Agatha were a stark contrast to many tropes we see, although Penelope did sometimes read as a more quirky Hermione. The story is not simply about their relationship, though, as they face many problems, primarily the Humdrum and their own fears, both addressed in "Fangirl" as well.
This story delivers both plot points and characters never discussed in the original, giving readers familiar with "Fangirl" their fair share of twists and turns. It is beautifully written, I definitely plan on rereading it. It works amazingly as a companion to "Fangirl" and as a stand alone novel, with plot devices that weren't completely transparent, though the introduction may make less sense coming from a newbie to the world of the Mages. The story was wonderfully executed, and lived up to my very high expectations, all while taking the plot in a direction I never saw coming.
*As a side note, it is very moving to see a POC character, without that being her full identity. Rowell could have made Penny white, but she didn't, and addresses her "Caucasian" name by simply saying, "Anyone can have that name," and moving on, much like how Park’s identity wasn’t just his race in “Park and Eleanor”. I also appreciate how it did not trivialize Simon and Baz, but made them poignant characters, with real motivations and explanations for their behavior, not just focusing on their sexuality.
I really enjoyed "Carry On" and recommend it to anyone who loves the magical escape of a fantastical story.

I stayed up all night to finish the book.
By Clever Elf
Really lovely writing. All the things I love about fan fiction such as a certain disregard for traditional limits as well as the cohesion and beautiful writing of an actual book written by a brilliant author. It is especially good if you have already read Fan girl, but I don't think that would be necessary to really enjoy the book. I would also recommend getting the audio version. The Baz voice is so perfect that I didn't know whether I should burst into laughter or do a little victory dance.
