... the slow-burn romance that evolves alongside character growth?

One Last Stop by Casey McQuiston

If you were swept away by Simon and Baz's gradual, heartfelt romance and personal transformations in Carry On, you'll fall for August and Jane's magnetic connection in One Last Stop.

... the rivals-to-lovers dynamic and romantic subplots?

Fence: Striking Distance by Sarah Rees Brennan

If the deliciously tense, rivals-turn-lovers relationship between Simon and Baz in Carry On was your favorite part, you'll be hooked by the chemistry and tension between Nicholas and Seiji in Fence: Striking Distance. The story delivers slow-burn romance, witty clashes, and heartfelt moments as the characters fumble toward understanding and affection.

... the inventive, detailed magical world where outsiders belong?

Every Heart a Doorway by Seanan McGuire

If you loved the unique magical system and the sense of belonging among misfits at Watford in Carry On, you'll be captivated by the eerie, beautifully constructed world of Eleanor West’s Home for Wayward Children.
