Goodreads Friends discussion

Let's discuss this month's book.
Please hide your spoilers.

1. In many ways The Magicians depicts and amplifies the quintessential adolescent experience: depression, ennui, emotional carelessness. Would magic be a gift or a curse for the typical teenager?

2. Would Quentin ultimately have been happier if he had chosen not to attend Brakebills?

3. Jane Chatwin specifically chose Quentin for the task of vanquishing the beast, yet he isn’t the one who winds up killing him. Why?

What did you think ot the book?

I really thought I would enjoy this book more than I'm actually enjoying it. It's been a tough one to read, and I'm struggling to finish it before April ends... Hope I can do it, though.

I didn't have time to read it so I'll keep this book for May read also if others are interested.
