I've recently 'discovered' it on HBO and I totally fell in love with A Discovery Of Witches. I thought stories involving witches and vampires and demons were a big NO for me, but it seems I was wrong. The series charmed me and entranced me. There was only one moment when I had doubts. It was a hunting scene, something I was already familiar with from reading fiction involving werewolves, the only supernatural beings I used to find tolerable. But I moved on and kept wondering how the mystery will be solved. Unfortunately for me, the first season ended after only 8 episodes and it left me desperate to find out what happens next. So I got the books the series is based on, the trilogy All Souls by Deborah Harkness. The book has a lot more details and a lot less logic than the film. I have bravely advanced through pointless wording till I came to the scene where the vampire says he does yoga and he invites the witch to join him at his yoga place. I put the Kindle down and I don't think I can move past this stupidity.
I guess I will have to wait 2 years for season two now...
