I have to admit, I like that it didn’t wrap up all nice and neat.

I think that makes their relationships more organic. The characters all had an opportunity to grow and did so individually and not as a pod, but at the same time came back together as the people they became and not the kids they were. BUT, I felt Any Way The Wind Blows was a good redemption. That being said, I was unimpressed with “Wayward Son”, I felt it focused too much on Simon’s obvious depression with out doing anything about it, whether that be alleviating it or pushing him deeper into it. The concept obviously changed as Carry On became the flagship of the Simon Snow series, I honestly think that took something away from it-it removed it’s overarching purpose. When Carry On came out, I loved the concept of that book-they idea that it was written as the fanfiction story written in Fangirl really excited me and Carry On really was a cute story. And Agatha is learning more about the Watford goats than she ever expected. Baz and Simon are investigating the various new “chosen ones” popping up, their interest piqued by one who promises to restore and build magic in the weak. Penelope has smuggled home a cursed normal, Simon is still in shambles since losing the madge and his magic, Baz is trying not to think too much about the up rise of the American vampires while attempting to salvage his relationship with Simon and Agatha never wants to be left defenseless again.Īfter being unceremoniously dismissed by her headmaster mother, Penelope set out to break the curse herself. The group is back from their wild adventure in America and they are all a little worse for wear. I know, because I loved you then, and I love you now, and I know that’s not enough to make you happy- to make anyone happy- but you’re the same person, Simon. “I understand that you’ve lost something- a lot of things- but you’re still the same person.

Any way the wind blows book review
