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.

Review of 'Carry On' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

Presque 4 étoiles, presque. J'ai apprécié la lecture, mais ce n'était pas non plus le roman le plus transcendant. Mais les personnages étaient attachants, et ce côté Harry Potter rempli de pop culture était assez amusant. Cependant le livre prends énormément de temps à se mettre en place, j'ai eu du mal avec les 200 premières pages, mais une fois celles-ci passées j'ai dévoré le reste du livre. Puis je stan complètement Simon & Baz (forcément) :D Bref si vous voulez du Harry Potter un peu plus déjanté, avec un cast assez amusant, des amours passionnels et beaucoup d'humour, foncez.
