RAINBOW ROWELL lives in Omaha, Nebraska, with her husband and two sons. She's also the author of Landline, Fangirl, Eleanor & Park, and Attachments.
Rowell imbues her magic with awe and spectacle. Its a powerful, politically minded allegory about sexual, ethnic and class identity - with a heady shot of teenage lust. <i>New York Times Book Review</i></p> It s a brilliantly addictive, genuinely romantic story about teenagers who can t be neatly sorted into houses, coping with stress and loss and the confusion of just trying to be who they are. It s as if Rowell turned the Harry Potter books inside out, and is showing us the marvelous, subversive stuffing inside. <i>Time Magazine</i></p> Full of heart and humor, this fantastical tale is a worthy addition to the wizarding-school genre. <i>People Magazine</i> <i>Carry On </i>is the fantasy book I didn t know I d been waiting for for years...Rowell s mystery, magic, and political intrigue is the sexiest love story I ve read in a long time. Julie Beck, for <i>The Atlantic</i></p> The funny, wised-up dialogue, the tumultuous, sweet, and sexy love story is grade-A Rowell...almost impossible to put down. <i>Publishers Weekly</i> (starred review)</p> Stock up on copies this one begs to be reread. <i>Booklist </i>(starred review)</p> With rock-solid worldbuilding, a sweet and believable romance subplot, and satisfying ending, <i>Carry On</i> is a monumentally enjoyable reading experience. Hand this to fans of Rowell, Harry Potter, love stories, and magic. <i>School Library Journal</i> (starred review)</p> <i>Carry On</i> is a triumph. Thrilling and sexy, funny and shocking, deeply moving and very, very magical. Trust me, you have never, ever seen a wizard school like this. Lev Grossman, #1 <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>The Magicians</i> trilogy</p>
