Charles’s recommendation of The Magicians (The Magicians, #1) > Likes and Comments
Like
Exploring universal issues of adolescent angst and alienation through a prism of magic, The Magicians is a brilliantly imagined fantasy adventure that is as mesmerizing as it is intelligent. Using the beloved novels of C. S. Lewis, T. H. White, and J. K. Rowling as a springboard, bestselling author Lev Grossman unspools a riveting coming-of-age tale in which magic is as fallible and mercurial as the humans that wield it. The Magicians Reader’s Guide -- Penguin Random House
One definition of YA is reading suitable for ages 12 to 18 years old. The Original Poster withheld her age. I would have read "The Magicians" when I was 13 - 14. I don't think you can determine when a reader is ready for adult themes purely by their age.
