Loved this

5 stars

My favourite so far in my re-read. Always loved the witches. The witches reminded me so much of certain relatives of mine - guess I never really appreciated that when I first read it growing up. So many genuinely laugh out loud moments.

Mac-who?

4 stars

Early Discworld novels are a little more rough around the edges, it they still have their charms. I’ve skipped the witches books for too long

Wyrd Sisters

4 stars

This one was one of the best ones in the series so far. Nice, self-contained story. Interesting characters with lots of funny plays on stereotypes, combined with references to the real world.

Eh

No rating

I didn't like this one as much. I found it hard to follow the plot and I disliked how a lot of characters were .. characterised. I also suspect that a lot of references went right over my head, since I haven't really read any Shakespeare, and I've ignored all summaries of Shakespeare that ever showed up in my life.

Solid, vivid and with a fun plot, but a bit flat philosophy-wise

4 stars

A great continuation of the storyline of witches, but this one is about craft, betrayal and Agatha Christy-esque finale. Colourful and interesting read, but – as we know – Pratchett could and did do books where it's all that plus a lot of depth.

I did love the quote where he compares Ankh-Morpork with a drain where everyone ends up and can't escape. As a relatively newfound Londoner, it strikes a chord.

I just love those witches

5 stars

What an immensely entertaining book. I didn’t get all the references but enough for it to be very entertaining. So well written in it’s craziness—one can barely believe it. I’m not even sure which witch I liked best. They’re all super! I’m really glad I started into the Discworld with this subseries.

This is actually 3-1/2 stars...

Terry Pratchett is always fun, though I admit to being a little disappointed with this one. It's not the author's fault, though, that I seem to prefer the stories that take place in Ankh-Morpork and involve the Night Watch. They're so much funnier than his witches, though I did enjoy Nanny Ogg. Oh, and DEATH is hardly in this one, and I missed him, too.
