A review by mrsrccockrell
The Magicians by Lev Grossman

4.0

This book was recommended to me by every “Harry Potter for Adults” book list I found online. It has an agonizingly slow start, but it does eventually pick up and I’m looking forward to reading the next one. I am, however, not a huge fan of Quentin, the main character. He’s kind of a self-absorbed prick who can’t help but wallow in misery that he’s created for himself. In fact, there was only one character I was 100% on board with and I’m not happy with the way her arc played out.
I hope, now that things have gotten moving with this plot, that the next two books keep me momentum going and that Quentin starts being a character worth getting behind.
