Latinandgreek said:"The Magicians by Lev Grossman was also hailed as the grown-up HP, and that's not an exaggeration at all. It did have it's flaws, but it's still a good read."

I read the Magicians also, I had high hopes at the beginning but ended up disliking the characters by the end. I will probably pass on the sequel. A book can be so personal, hard to be objective. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I forgot to mention Cornelia Funke's InkHeart, Inkspell & Inkdeath. I very much enjoyed Inkheart!
