This was a quick read. As a teenager, the character of Clarity and her situation would have provided endless daydream fodder, as an adult, the resolution was too pat for me to ignore. I think I would have enjoyed Clarity and her world better in the context of normal teenage drama, without the over the top murders as a distraction.

I think The Magicians is one of those books that is better read once the entire trilogy series is complete. I read the Magicians and the Magician King (the second in the series) back-to-back and it just feels incomplete. The book centers of a genius 18 year old, Quentin, who is admitted to a secret magical college, Brakebills. Quentin is a disaffected character and at times, it was hard to care about him. As he grows up, it becomes a bit easier. The books are akin to Harry Potter if the Hogwarts years were dealt with in the first half of the first book. The education part felt rushed and I wished there was more detail about Brakebills. We'll see what happens in the third of the series.

Stopped reading it when a newborn baby was taken away from one of the prisoners and it just went downhill from there. I thought it was going to be inspiring.
