A review by tregina
The Magicians by Lev Grossman

2.0

There are a lot of things to like about this novel, things that I normally gravitate towards like magical schools and realistic relationships. But there came a point where it was just gross to be in Quentin's head with him, with his entitlement and his misogyny, and I never got past that. The novel itself is an unholy marriage between Harry Potter and Narnia with a level of grit over the whole thing, but the pacing and structure were off and so even the elements that I did like never came together for me into a satisfying book.
