The writer's style is kinda handholdy and
the twist at the end ruined it for me.


Still, finished it in one day, was entertained, so eh

The Magicians by Lev Grossman

Did not finish book. Stopped at 62%.
Really didn't like any of the characters. Also
there's an SA scene that is presented like it's not SA? Maybe it would get resolved in text but it made me very uncomfortable, it really shifted the whole mood of the book for me.
