Zully Tejeda _ully_ejeda — How I Came To Read This Book: I had been recommended it by a few people, with the premise of 'Harry Potter goes to college' being too good to pass on. I nabbed a copy at my used bookstore (which is amazeballs) using my book credits. Summary: Quentin is a genius, but he's also kinda miserable - everything seems so mundane compared to the fantasy world of Fillory he grew up with and he's tired of being the sidekick to his friends Julia & James. Everything changes however, on an afternoon when he's meant to be conducting a college interview and instead ends up at a bizarre examination at what appears to be some sort of magical college. Not-really-a-spoiler alert, but Quentin gets in. About 60% of the book is about his five years at Breakbills, followed by a brief interlude as to what happens post-college (to regular grads too, I might add), and then a magical, mysterious, bloody journey that Quentin had thought he was dreaming of...but is woefully taken aback by. The Good & The Bad: If I had to sum up this book in two words, it would be 'So what?' I spent a good deal of the book - particularly as I got close to the end - thinking those very words. I've been studying novel writing quite closely over the last year and this book seemed to have difficulty adhering to the whole three plot point concept, with the aforementioned 60% of the book containing very little that pertained to the remaining 40%. I was surprised that we flew through Quentin's college years so quickly, yet at the same time in some ways they crawled by slowly as Lev Grossman zooms in extremely closely at some times and then skips over an entire semester at others. It was weird. There were all these little moments and incidents that made me think - okay, so what are we building to? What is the big threat here? (Logically it's the Beast, who does make its appearance right at the first plot point timing, but still, it was such a non-entity for the following sections that it was just kinda like, okay...) Who cares about Welters? What was the point of Quentin and Julia's encounter? That's the one that's niggling at me the most. That and all the sh*t Quentin went through at school (including his recognition of the hill in the mirror, and his Antarctic trek). I also didn't really dig the characters. While I appreciate a flawed bunch of humans, this batch was particularly detestable and arrogant, to put it mildly. I just didn't like them or really care for them, including Quentin and Alice (the latter of which is certainly the most sympathetic character of the bunch). There were some interesting things here so I won't completely pan it, but for a book I'd been looking forward to reading for quite some time (it was #67 on my 500+ to-read list!) I was more than a little let down. The Bottom Line: Harry Potter at college? Not nearly as magical. Anything Memorable?: Not really, although for HP fans there is a Harry Potter reference slid in here. 60-Book Challenge?: Book #1 in 2015
