Read 3 times. Last read October 5, 2024 to October 6, 2024.
Re-read 10/6/24:
For Spooktober. You know when you've got that little craving? For a little spot of blood..no..I mean tea. Well, here it is. In all its Go for the Throat Discworld glory.
:)
Original Review:
On this re-read, I'm going to revise my rating a star higher.
Why? Because I really enjoyed it. :)
Really, what else can anyone say about reading Pratchett? That they love the quips and the little funny wisdoms and the bloody-minded humor? Well, sure, all of that is grand, but pitting Granny against vampyres that have a bit of Weatherwax wisdom is a sure-fire way to make the sparks fly. And even mythological birds are still birds. :)
Stand-out scenes for me are the ones where Nanny Ogg becomes the "other" witch and I absolutely loved her flirtations with Igor. :) Oh, and Oats. Oats and Granny were so CUTE together. :)
