Excellent story with interesting characters and intriguing themes. The main character Shadow is smart, complex, and interesting. With a myriad of characters both human and gods, the story is great and worth reading.

Cool magic system with ok Characters
The characters are obviously smart people however they often make stupid mistakes, which can be frustrating. The magic system is very well developed and Lev's explanation of Circumstance is very well thought out.

Great Show
I've been watching this since the first season and it has been great right from the start. The writing is smart and the characters are so interesting they grab your attention right away. Rami Malek especially stands out with his amazing performance.

Although I have read many books where I didn't like the characters, however in the instance it wasn't only the characters I disliked, it was the whole concept. The main character is apparently so smart that she can manipulate the police, her husband, everyone around her.... I felt that it was unrealistic and overly dramatic. The husband was pathetic and by the end I felt they deserved each other.
