This book was truly amazing. I loved it from beginning to end. Ever since reading Fangirl, I had always been interested in Simon's world, and his hate/love for Baz. And let me tell you, this book did not disappoint.
The plot was written in such a way that throughout the whole book, you gather all of these questions in your brain, but the questions don't take over the book. Your questions about Baz's mother or the Humdrum don't take away the awesomeness of Baz's and Simon's love, or how cute Simon and Penelope are as friends. Some books can be like that, where you just read the book to find answers. Not this one. Sure, you are REALLY curious to find answers, but it doesn't take the pleasure out of reading the rest of the plot. Of course, when you do find the answers at the end, you just want to jump out of your skin in happiness after the 400 pages of suspense. I loved how everything was sorted out in the end. The ending seemed natural, not forced or absurd like some endings I have read are. Its a domino effect. You find out one answer, and then another, and then another, and everything makes sense and it feels natural, instead of BAM everything at once.
The characters in this book were AMAZING. Each one is unique in their own way, and contribute to the story's awesomeness. TBH, this was my very first book containing gay characters. And I LOVED it. I loved Simon and Baz together, and Penelope, and Ebb, and all the supporting characters. It feels like they are all your friends after you finish the book.. And when you do finish it, you don't and won't let go of the world. Ever. No wonder Cath was so obssessed, the world of Simon Snow is freaking amzing.
