The Magicians

A poor man's Harry Potter? The college part was readable, there were some fantasy elements, the magic as a boring and difficult thing to learn was interesting.

But when the main characters became seniors, and had learned all they could have about magic, then the books turn into a mundane young adult novel, with two of the most brilliant magical minds in the world wondering about meeting each other parents and what they will do now that college is almost over?

By the way, the TV Series capture the book pretty well. Did not like it either, stopped watching the same part I stopped reading.
