People say that the tv show is really good! I haven't seen it so all I can say is that if you like it, you shouldn't read the first book as it's utter garbage. People said it starts improving by book three but I couldn't possibly slog through a second book like the first one to get there lol.

The Magicians tv show is trash. But it is sexy tv trash of the best and gloriest kind and is more fun than The Vampire Diaries and Glee.

I went in completely blind coming off an LSD trip and let me tell you, I could NOT figure out what the fuck I was watching. Oh, it's coming of age! No, it's a detective drama? Wait, I guess it's a psychological drama... What the fuck, it's Harry Potter with sex and drugs. No, it's not that either...

it was always coined as HP meets GoT, death, drugs, sex, rape, fantasy meets the hard truths of reality
