3.0
This has been my least favorite of the series so far, though I did still enjoy it. I found the first half to be a bit boring and slow, and had I not been determined to read all of Discworld I may have DNF'd it. However, the second half picked up in a big way, and the charm and fun I've come to expect from Pratchett's work reappeared. I look forward to seeing Granny again in later books.
Moderate: Misogyny
Minor: Death, Sexual content, and Violence
These books are meant to be funny, so I wouldn't say there's anything overtly upsetting in them. However, there are certainly adult themes and plenty of inuendo.rainbowrachel's review against another edition

Fun, lighthearted read.
Graphic: Sexism and Misogyny
Minor: Sexual content
Story is based on breaking down magic gender roles. Nothing too graphic, but it is the main plot of the book. There are a couple of very mild sex jokes.
