Look at me, easily giving away all of my heart. I love witches, I love Granny and I love this novel. Sometimes it is as easy as that 🖤🧙🏻♀️
Personally I just loved this book. Granny Weatherwax just fulfills it all. I need to know what happened to Esk. But she hasn't got anymore books! She is in I Shall Wear Midnight briefly but other than that nothing. I need to know!! I have so many unanswered questions.
Even better the second time around.
“She was already learning that if you ignore the rules people will, half the time, quietly rewrite them so that they don't apply to you.” “...it is well known that a vital ingredient of success is not knowing that what you're attempting can't be done.” “They say a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but it's not one half so bad as a lot of ignorance.” “Do you know how wizards like to be buried?" "Yes!" "Well, how?" Granny Weatherwax paused at the bottom of the stairs. "Reluctantly.” ''…there’s no male witches, only silly men" "She was also, by the standards of other people, lost. She would not see it like that. She knew where she was, it was just that everywhere else didn't." "The entire universe has been neatly divided into things to (a) mate with, (b) eat, (c) run away from, and (d) rocks." "Million-to-one chances...crop up nine times out of ten."
Pleasently wholesome
A girl wants to become a wizard? Unheard of in the discworld, but old witch granny has other plans and so she ventures with Esk to the unseen university to enroll her. The start of the book was a bit boring, but once in Ankh-Morpok things hastely become entertaining and then it ends. Esk and Granny, aswell es Cutangle are pleasant characters and with the right pacing and content, this trio could make up a great read.
Bisher mein liebstes Pratchett-Buch.
I've tried to get into discworld a number of times. I have a strange relationship with the series, as not only was it my Dad's favourite while I was growing up, but I had the honour to meet the Author back when I was a child. But for whatever reason, I could never get into the books. Until today, I decided to try Equal Rites as a starting off point because there were no expectations on me or it. I fell in love with the thing. I think it's a shame we pratchett didn't do much more with Esk, as I feel there was so much potential there. Though I am glad he did return to her near the end.
