I have mixed feelings about this one. I am not sure it was what I had expected after reading the blurb. 

The thing I am sure of is that I enjoyed the sequel slightly more than Carry On. I think that is because of the faster pacing and the more varied scenery of the american desert, lousy motels and sin's city itself. 

I found it intrigueing, but I missed more of what was promised in the blurb about Baz and Simon figureing out their relationship and themselves. Other than that, the characters just felt kind of distant from each other and there were scenes wich didn't seem necessary to the plot. I also didn't feel like I got as much out of the ending as I hoped for while reading.

THIS is what I wanted Carry On to be. Big and silly, dumb and fun, not too serious, but all heart. And hella gay.

Whoever said this was disappointing didn't read the same book.
