Bearing in mind that I read this about 4 years ago, this review covers most of what I remember hating about it.
Having not read it, I thought that was kinda supposed to be the point. Harry Potter/Narnia starring an uncool depressed loser. I thought it was supposed to be like a subversion or whatever
but idk lol people say Kingkiller was supposed to be a subversion but it's nowhere near self-aware enough
