![]() If you've read Fangirl, you'll know that Simon and Baz are nemesis who will fall in love eventually. The other great thing is the love story in this book. Together with his best friend Penelope, who is also funny, but completely in control and smart, there are so many laugh out loud moments in this book. I loved Simon he was funny, clumsy and completely clueless about so many things, but not cocky about it. ![]() Simon is the chosen one of this story and he's still an enjoyable character! This is the first chosen one that doesn't act like a brat. My favourite thing about this book is the amazing characterisation. What I didn't know is that I would absolutely completely fall in love with the story of Simon Snow.Īs I've mentioned many times before, I'm not overly into the whole "chosen one" idea (aka Harry in Harry Potter) and I don't love fantasy as much as I love contemporary stories, which makes it even more remarkable that Rainbow completely sold me on this story. I knew I'd read Carry On, simple because Rainbow Rowell wrote it. Sometimes it pays off to not have high expectations of a book. ![]() When you’re the most powerful magician the world has ever known, you never get to relax and savor anything. And actual evil things trying to shut Simon down. Simon can’t even enjoy the fact that his roommate and longtime nemesis is missing, because he can’t stop worrying about the evil git. His girlfriend broke up with him, his best friend is a pest, and his mentor keeps trying to hide him away in the mountains where maybe he’ll be safe. Simon Snow just wants to relax and savor his last year at the Watford School of Magicks, but no one will let him. Fangirl is one of my favourite books of all time, but I just wanted that into the Simon Snow parts (I might even have skipped some of them.) and I just wasn't that interested to see the story of Simon and Baz develop. She could write my monthly bills and I wouldn't mind reading them. She could write my grocery list and I would enjoy reading it.
