by Lev Grossman

If you're in the mood for The Magicians when I'm done reading it, you can borrow it. When I flip through the pages I feel like I'm reading an adult version of The Chronicles of Narnia.

I've been a fan of literary journalism for years but until very recently the existence of this genre was lost upon my shelf (or so I thought). My eyes have gobbled up in-depth stories printed in newspapers and magazines (The Chicago Tribune and Vanity Fair are examples) since I was a teen.

I joined the group to indulge in your recommendations and comments on this particular style of writing.

Happy reading!
