An unforgettable road trip across America through Rainbow Rowell's Wayward Son..

Reviewed in India on 28 December 2019

📖Title - Wayward son
📖Author - Rainbow Rowell
📖Format - Paperback
📖Total number of pages - 354
📖 Genre - High Fantasy / Young adult Fiction / Queer reads
📖 Brief Review and Rating -
Simon Snow sacrificed all his magical powers and lost his sword in " the big war " ; The Dragon wings and the Devil's tail are still with him and
he has his boyfriend, Baz and his bestfriend, Penny by his side.
Simon has been confined to his couch; avoiding Baz (no more sweet kisses)..while Penny comes up with a sudden plan of a road trip across America to get Simon off the couch and visit Agatha who has left England for good and is experiencing the " Normal " life.
.
When, the trio land in America and take to the road; trouble always finds them as usual. Simon, Baz and Penny face the dark magical elements of America like vampires, dragons and weird magical animals.
When they suspect Agatha is in trouble and held captive by a cult who call themselves " The NowNext" headed by Braden ; the trio plan to rescue her with the help of the "Normal" Shepard and The Vampire " Lamb"..Already, I think I am giving out spoilers.. Read up to know the story of the "rosebud boys"..🥰

The book is awesome but we cannot be sure about in what condition it might be arrived..there was no packing at all inside and that might damage the edges of the book in a terrible way.must do something regarding the packaging.

Short Bookreview:📚This book starts with Baz worrying about depressed Simon, who constantly has negative thoughts on everything. Then Penny surprises them with tickets to fly to America. They find themselves excited to go for vacation to America. Little did they know that they're getting themselves into a big trouble with America's Magical creatures!

I enjoyed this book as it had an exhilarating plot and fast-moving plot with multiple POVs,which were all so good.

Simon, Oh Simon! He needs to figure out what's going on in his life and start clearing all the mess instead of hurting his friends and hurting himself in the process. The vacation helped him get out of his depression, at least!! ( Thanks to Penelope). And I loved the writing style. It makes you unable to stop turning pages. The settings, spells, humour & the smartness of the plot are mind-blowing.

Okay then the vacation turned from escaping from magical creatures into a rescue mission to save their Friend Agatha.And finally Agatha showing us some her badassery moves!

I felt sad seeing Baz going through some issues related to his Vampirism. His love on Snow is just so pure and I- *sobs*.
Penny is such a strong and caring & brilliant Mage, she deserves all the happiness in the world.
Every SnowBaz scenes were cute, lovely &heartbreaking (in a good way) even when they're arguing with each other. I'm slightly disappointed that they couldn't clear/have a talk about their ship. (THANKS TO PENNY,AGAIN.) Overall, it's a good read, adventurous &captivating book.

I rate it 4.99/5.
There are many scenes I loved so much. Baz and Penny's, Agatha & Penny's and the last scene of SnowBaz❤ It was totally enchanting.

This book tells how one should get out of their depression, importance of friends and love and also tells not to lose trust on yourself just because you were wrong once and to keep fighting!

Quotes:
"Why can’t you see that I wouldn’t be happy anywhere without you?” "I’d tie our hearts together, chamber by chamber."

Now the problem is I can't wait for 2 years for the next book.
Also I wish I could cast *As they were* spell on my dearest #Snowbaz ❤

🧛🏻‍♂️ i loved this sequel more than the first book cuz every page in this book is so rich filled with humor & even more romantic than the first one.
🧛🏻‍♂️ i can’t describe how fun it was to read this book right from the beginning itself, there wasn’t a single moment where i felt like ''ugh it’s boring.....''🤷🏻‍♂️
🧛🏻‍♂️ i laughed out loud endless times & also this book left me at the edge of my curiosity, i can’t freaking wait for another effing year for the 3rd book 😖 rainbow rowell why ¿!!! 😩
🧛🏻‍♂️ All the characters are sweethearts in this book, each & every character is truly magical which makes this book so special, especially Baz (such a sassy character you’ll ever get to witness)
🧛🏻‍♂️ moments between simon & baz will melt you like literally ❤️
🧛🏻‍♂️ damn vampires are so fun.....& there’re so many of them if you’re interested.
''SPOILER ALERT'' brought you by Vampires & only vampires 🙅🏻‍♂️
🧛🏻‍♂️ simon to baz- “I’d tie our hearts together, chamber by chamber.”

🧛🏻‍♂️ baz to simon - “Why can’t you see that I wouldn’t be happy anywhere without you?”

Wayward Son might have hurt me i think. This book is a literal roadtrip, just that there are a lot of obstacles, too many downs and a very few ups with very little rest. This book made me laugh, a bit emotional and made me want to throw it at the wall.
Baz, Simon and Penelope decide to take a road trip across and it doesn't go as planned. As the characters unravel another adventure, we get to see and understand other aspects of them and the plot. My boys were hurting and my little heart could not take it okay?
But i liked that we get to see Simon, post tragedy of book one, emotionally, mentally and physically adjusting. There were the psychological aspects of his and Baz's relationship which I think were done well and it exhibited that they are infact young boys and their mundane feelings were well portrayed.

I loved the character and relation development in this book. To see Baz and Penelope go from not even looking at each other to Baz and her sharing a bed and him using a family spell on her was just adorable. Penelope is quite the same, a brilliant mage and trying to save Simon's ass. also, Agatha for once put her abilities to use and helped. but yeah kids need a break.

no issues about the book or the writing. I was absolutely awestruck and rainbow's writing is every bit flawless and it's an amazing build up to the 3rd or probably the final book!! The issue I had was with the packaging .. the package was wet and the book was damaged.. I wish amazing would reconsider their packaging ways~..

It's such a good book. I read the first one years ago and honestly I didn't even know that I needed this sequel. It's such a wholesome book. Can't wait for the third!
