The Magicians: Alice's Story by Pius Bak, Lev Grossman, Lilah Sturges

3.0

This book was really weird and nothing I would have expected (the part in Antarctica??)

This is also the first time I've read a book with such an unlikeable main character. Quentin was so whiney and unsatisfied with anything in his life and constantly on the lookout for the next thing that would be /it/ the thing that would just click for him and make everything make sense. In the process he just fucks up everything for everyone.

Nonetheless i still enjoyed reading about brakebills. The later part of the book when they were in fillory maybe not as much, but I'm still excited about the rest of the series.
