About this listen
Based on the characters Simon and Baz who featured in Rainbow Rowell's bestselling Fangirl, Carry On is a ghost story, a love story, a mystery and a melodrama.
It has just as much kissing and talking as you'd expect from a Rainbow Rowell story – but far, far more monsters.
Simon Snow just wants to relax and savour his last year at the Watford School of Magicks, but no one will let him. 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 can't even enjoy the fact that his room-mate and longtime nemesis is missing, because he can't stop worrying about the evil git. Plus there are ghosts. And vampires. And actual evil things trying to shut Simon down. When you're the most powerful magician the world has ever known, you never get to relax and savour anything.

Best fiction book based on a fiction book I've ever read
I loved this book. Simon and Baz are adorable. My favourite book by Rainbow yet.

Lovely
Couldn't stop listening to this story, so enjoyably engaging. Nice and gay but not in a the whole story is about it way.

Great Plot, Great Characters, Amazing World
I struggled to put this book down. Once you get past the obvious HP parallels, you start to admire how charming and modern Rowell's magical world really is. The world is so appealing to lovers of literature, where a magician has to be well-read in popular culture to fully harness their powers.
Highly recommend!

Fun rewritten fanfiction
I enjoyed the performance greatly and the story was definitely interesting and engaging. The author has quite obviously written fanfiction (I would hazard a guess that this is a heavily reworked fanfiction, in fact) and does fall into some of its traps which bring down the quality of the writing. The biggest issue I had was perspective changes occurring too often, which makes things hard to follow in an audio book.

Fantastic story. Great character depth.
Would've only been perfected with multiple voice actors for the different main characters. The different perspectives are perfect, definitely listen to twice.

give me more!!
I'm so obsessed with Carry On, (it's my third time reading it, first two times were with the paperback) and I was pretty iffy with listening to it in case it might change it too much for me, but Euan Morton did a fantastic job recreating it and I crave more of Rainbows magickal world than I have before, honestly. Reading it and listening to it gave me two entirely different perspectives and I was not dissapointed.

Genre defining
After reading Fan Girl, I didn't think this author could write a book better designed to be adored by me. How wrong I was. For fanfiction lovers, this is what we've always been waiting for, and what everyone told us wasn't worth wanting.
It's genre defining because it is a brave and new step into blended fiction genres. And now that this book exists, it seems so obvious that it needed to exist.
I don't know what reading this book is like for "normals" who aren't familiar with the tropes and conventions of quality fanfiction (of which there is much). I can only say so gobsmacked I am that this book exists and it is canon.
Performance was killer, spot on.

Full of love and fun
Loved it! Naration was okay, character voices where pretty consistant, only one scene that was a little harder to follow. Not deep or meaningfull but a sweet story with a lot of love.
