A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness
4.0

4.5 stars
I listened to the audiobook. It got off to a slow start, but I understand why the author took so long to develop the plot and characters, so I forgave her and kept going. There was A LOT in this book and I often had difficulty keeping up. I may have had an easier time if I’d read it instead and had taken time to deep dive into the historical bits.

I borrowed a friend’s copy of ADOW and have been whittling away at it since late October. I just finished it tonight and it was WAY better the second time around (reading rather than listening). Everything made so much more sense and I cannot wait to read the next book in the trilogy!
