Week 39 Review: Wayward Son

From Goodreads:
The story is supposed to be over.

Simon Snow did everything he was supposed to do. He beat the villain. He won the war. He even fell in love. Now comes the good part, right? Now comes the happily ever after…

So why can't Simon Snow get off the couch?

What he needs, according to his best friend, is a change of scenery. He just needs to see himself in a new light…

That's how Simon and Penny and Baz end up in a vintage convertible, tearing across the American West.

They find trouble, of course. (Dragons, vampires, skunk-headed things with shotguns.) And they get lost. They get so lost, they start to wonder whether they ever knew where they were headed in the first place…

With Wayward Son, Rainbow Rowell has written a book for everyone who ever wondered what happened to the Chosen One after he saved the day. And a book for everyone who was ever more curious about the second kiss than the first. It's another helping of sour cherry scones with an absolutely decadent amount of butter.

Come on, Simon Snow. Your hero's journey might be over – but your life has just begun. 

My Review:
Yeah, I really enjoyed reading this book! It's the story after the adventure has happened, and yeah, these characters aren't in a great spot! I enjoyed them going on this road trip, they had a few bumps along the way, like the different vernacular which guides their magic.

There were so many developments in this book. Like we got to meet a dragon, and yeah, that was pretty interesting! Oh, and we met some vampires, and yeah, Bas leaned a lot about that part of him, which was really great to read!

We also see them break the rules, like a lot. Like, they're worried about what's going to happen when then get back home. And I'm interested to see what's going to happen, since the way things ended, well, I want to see how it all plays out!

Oh, and that ending! That was so fantastic, and so great to read! There was so much going on, and it was like, oh, what happened? And then it ended, and I'm like, we need a 3rd book, without a 4 year wait, please and thank you! Ah!

I enjoyed this book so much, it was such a great read, and I really hope that we get more!
