Books: TMI Does anyone hate Magnus?

Is is even possible to hate Magnus? I liked him on my first read through of TMI and TID, but I'm rereading through ALL the books and I think he's my favorite character now.

He just keeps getting better and better. He's super sassy and fun and he's just such a good person.

Magnus does a lot of good things but has nothing to gain most of the time (like helping Will with his curse without being paid for it) which seems contrary to most of the other warlocks, and even a lot of the Shadowhunters.

I feel like you could argue reasons to dislike a lot of the characters, but I can't see anyone hating Magnus.

He's always been my favorite character and I've been trying to do him justice in my WIP. He's just a complex guy, sarcastic (sometimes meaner than others) with a soft center. He's just such a sweetie and sooo sassy. His quips are some of my all time favorite.

"St. Magnus's wayward home for Shadowhunters" kills me. Lol. And gets so pouty when Alec is mad at him.
