So Friday Book Beginnings you choose the book you are currently reading or the one that is closest to you and share the first few sentences. For the Friday 56 you simply turn to page 56 or 56% on your e-reader and share a sentence or two that you enjoy. Then just add maybe a synopsis about the book in case others are interested. That’s it!

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 sets 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.
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 [x].

I keep meaning to try another Rainbow Rowell book, Eleanor and Park did not really cut it for me. I should look into Fangirl. Thanks for stopping by my blog. Happy Friday!

I'm happy that I started with Fangirl before reading Eleanor & Park and Landline because those two disappointed me. Have a good weekend!!

I've not heard of this one. The writing is solid and a haunted house? Hmm…

This book is SO on my TBR pile. I loved FANGIRL and my daughter said CARRY ON was her favorite read of 2015. I must push other books off the stack to get to it. Thanks for visiting my blog.
