Full review here: https://notoriouslaylow.wordpress.com... 
 Rainbow Rowell wrote a "magical feels-plosion" book that makes your heart quench for more love. (Note that feels-plosion is not a real word. But you get what I mean.) Rainbow Rowell proved that she can write splendid works of fantasy, while still making you hold on to your dear heart because of all the cheesiness and cleverly-placed-at-the-right-romantic moments. If you would choose the "IT" couple, the crown definitely goes to Simon and Baz. Those two are all but perfectly imperfect, and because of them the book burst with love. 
 The story itself is not entirely cliche but it will give the nostalgia of reading another book with magics, dragons and a UK setting. It was different. And it does not lack the heart and soul that will make readers feel empty and hollow because of the ending. All the characters were all breaths of fresh air, and the book handled diversity in the best way possible. From Penelope Bunce to The Mage, all of them were all entertaining to read in perspective. 
 Crafted with the finest imperfections, I'm surprised that Rainbow Rowell has not written a fantasy book before Carry On. For she truly is a wonderful and unique author, just like her books. Carry On not only celebrates diversity, but it also made the fantasy aspect one bar higher.
