I thought that while this one was good, it wasn’t the be all, end all of books as I had been hearing about. I had never read a Rainbow Rowell book before but I had read her short story in the anthology My True Love Gave To Me. It was my favourite story in there so I knew I would be a fan of at least the writing style in Carry On. However, the book felt too short even though it was over 500 pages and it left me wanting ...more

Words cannot describe how excited I am.
^ That was my original reaction, written back in 2015. I also pre-ordered the book back in September 2015. Look at me now, reading the book 3 years later.
Better late than never. Although I think I've read it at exactly the right time.
Where do I start? I'm so glad this book exists. It's actually like Pride and Prejudice all over again (it's a lot like Pride and Prejudice, actually), because it's made me SO happy at a pretty stressful time. My love for Rainbo ...more

4.5 stars. I devoured this book! I could not put it down. It was so good. I knew going into this book that it was very potter-like and how these characters started. I wasn't sure how much I would like this book but i loved it! I loved that even though it was very alike to Harry Potter it was very much it's own story. I loved where the all relationships went and how she was able to get in 7 years of back story and world building without feeling like we were just getting an info dump. I was very s

This book wasn't my cup of tea to say the least. I realize it's a satire on books like Harry Potter. I did find some parts funny which is a miracle as I have a low sense of humor. I understand what Ms. Rowell was trying to accomplish but it didn't work for me. The plot dragged and I got into a slight slump.
