title: A Discovery of Witches

author: Deborah Harkness

my rating: ⭐️⭐️/5
genre(s): Fantasy, Romance

my thoughts: under the cut for spoilers

Finish date: 05/15/2018

This book was just too slow paced for me. It took me over a month to finish, I just couldn’t stay interested. It also seemed like the author tried too hard to be different, to try and distinguish this book from other witch/vampire books. There was so much information that in my opinion seemed unnecessary to the plot. I mean whole pages dedicated to wine tasting that in the end was only used to show how refined Matthew’s (the vampire) tastes are and how old he is. This book was just not for me and I won’t be continuing on with the series. When I finally finished I was honestly relieved to be done with this book.
