Summary
“You think we’re getting haunted by somebody else’s ghost?”
“It isn’t a ghost,” Alice says tightly. “The concept of a ghost has a specific definition, and—”
Kady flaps her hand at the ceiling. “Somebody else’s disembodied consciousness. Whatever.”
(The Monster gets exorcised from Eliot's body. It works a little bit too well.)

Summary
He doesn’t care that Julia became the undisputed Queen of Brakebills basically overnight. He doesn’t care about her new group of friends who hate him, or her ultra-rare discipline, or her mentorship with the dean. That’s not what any of this is about.
Friends don’t date exes. They don’t keep the ‘dating-your-ex’ secret for two straight months. They don’t wait for you to find out on your own, in the middle of the day, in the middle of campus, and humiliate yourself in front of everyone.
But Quentin has new friends now— and they don’t fight clean.
(Brakebills, but make it Mean Girls.)

Summary
“We’re not friends.”
Julia nods, silently conceding. Eliot’s a little disappointed; he would have thought she’d argue back, what are you talking about, we’re totally friends, the three conversations we’ve ever had have like so bonded us for life, and he’s kind of spoiling for a fight.
Then she says, “But you were his friend.”

Summary
He’s clever, they always said, which really meant don’t trust him. But when Claude pieced apart his walls to let someone inside they were always surprised to find that he wasn’t the snake they’d been expecting. He was ambitious, of course, but ambition in the hands of good men is a blessing, not a curse. And when he described the tenets of his vision for the future it was easy to believe that clever was simply a synonym for kind.
He’ll betray you, they said, already sitting in his palms, but when he drew his hands into fists to crush them they still bothered to cry out, why?

Summary
Between slipping grades and an explosive break-up, Quentin's first year at Brakebills was coming to a miserable close—and that was before the Beast attacked. Now everyone's cancelling their summer plans to join in the fight against an existential threat, Fillory is both real and much deadlier than in the books, and it turns out Quentin sucks as much at battle magic as he does at everything else. As the war drags on, dying in battle starts to seem like the best possible outcome, the answer to all his problems: one shining moment of glory, and then he's finally free. It's a foolproof plan—until he wakes up and has to do it all over again.
(Or: An action movie about wanting to die, with time loops.)

Summary
Quentin is, of course, still curled in a ball when Eliot glides down beside him. He moves slowly so as not to spook the poor thing, and it takes three gentle coughs from his throat before Quentin finally lifts his head from his hands, blinking at Eliot with a blank expression.
Eliot gives him a small, hopefully genial smile. “Mind if I join you?”
“Oh, Jesus Christ.” Quentin rolls his eyes back and slams his head into the wall.

Eliot Waugh has been captivated by Quentin Coldwater since the moment their eyes first met. Unfortunately, their eyes first met while Eliot was hooking up with Quentin’s boyfriend.
It’s not exactly Casablanca.
