I have to admit though, I really like what I've seen of the tv adaptation. :)Lauren Stoolfirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07777860030600932061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-115308231743588235.post-46564529229842701902017-10-04T01:09:49.260+01:002017-10-04T01:09:49.260+01:00I've had this on my TBR list for years.

I don't remember Quentin being unlikeable but I did read this years ago.

Unfortunately, he doesn't become likable until book 3 - but it's well worth reading it all to get to that point!
