Raul: I would like to formally recommend carry on by rainbow Raul. It's fantasy, uh, LGBT QA, YA and it made my heart so what it, what is YA stand for? It was a comma before YA. She says, "It is to Harry Potter, what 50 shades is to Twilight dot dot dot" We'll talk about that later in the show.

This novel about a wizarding school and its teen magicians feels like the finale of a series that you've heard about but haven't read. Which is...sort of the point? Born out of an in-universe work of fan fiction from a different Rowell novel, Carry On provides a great opportunity to dig into what helps a story inspired by another story succeed.
