The Magicians by Lev Grossman, pt. 1
Trigger warnings for rape, able-ism, & thoughtless misogyny. My bookclub read this book this last month. It has a nifty (and for nerds, self-aggrandizing) concept: magic is real but secret and only the extraordinarily brilliant can see and perform it.

Freshly escaped from New Mexico, I was aiming for a stopover at Paolo Santeri’s Arcosanti, followed by the Joshua Tree National Park in California. I cover Arcosanti in another posting; this one’s for…
Thanks so much to you both! I’m so thrilled it’s finally all done, completed, and uploaded — WHEW! :)
Also, Ms. M, fair warning: the Methodology is probably skippable, while the Lit Review will be of interest mostly if you’re looking for other similar-subject books to read. The Intro, the actual research chapter, and the Conclusion, though, I hope will be fun and/or intriguing! :-D
Yowza! Fabulous news. I’ve already started to read it and look forward to future convos. Cheers!
Congratulations!
