My last 5/6 reads (spanning a month and a half?) were peaking at 3 stars. It was a struggle. And this book felt like such a breath of fresh air. It re-energized my reading. It made me smile. It was just perfect.

What did I love about this book?
-The world building was fun and creative (despite being veeeeery similar to the world in Harry Potter.)
-There was a mystery/mysterious elements that we didn't understand at the beginning, and it made me want to keep reading to figure out what was going on.
-The characters were well-drawn and very likable.
-The pacing of the story was excellent--everything was given as much time as it needed, but I was never bored.
-The love story was adorable. It was a slow burn, but that made it more satisfying.

The whole thing was just so enjoyable. I sped through it.

“You were the sun… And I was crashing into you.”

One of the best books I’ve read! It made me smile, cry and laugh so many times and I can’t wait to continue the Trilogy!

I’m certainly in love with this book! Book one of Simon Snow series, this is an entertaining novel with magic school, vampire and young love.

This is kind of book that I might re-read over and over again (once I got time for that). I love seeing the story development even though it is quite slow. From enemy to lover making me heart flutter seeing the main characters fitting in such opposite way.

The ending is quite shocking even though quite predictable (at least for me). And I’m going to read the second installment, Wayward Son in nearest time. And waiting patiently for the third one Any Way The Wind Blow. I’m usually not a fan of series but this is too good to miss out!

If you looking a book with magic, young love without too much tease , friendship with dash of betrayal. Read this.

i love snowbaz
necesito más de esta pareja.

amo a baz,y me encanta el romance que tiene con Simón,en más de un momento termine llorando e igualmente emocionada cayendome de la cama.

penny me cae bien pero agatha...yo y agatha no pudimos congeniar,lo lamento.

la historia me encanto y me sumergí de llenó en ella.

♡♡♡

Relectura, aún disfrutó a Simón y Baz y su relación
