I am a huge fan of this show and the first season was close to the best season. Introduction to the characters of Angel and relearning about buffy and her Scooby gang was great.

Angel was my favourite episode and it really got me hooked onto the show

The 23rd Discworld book, this is really what I would term as one of the 'Witches' (Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg, Magrat Garlik and - now - Agnes Nitt) novels, and is also the first to concentrate on 'proper' Vampires (or, as they prefer to be known, Vampyres (with a 'y'))

By 'proper' Vampires, I do mean vicious bloodsuckers, as opposed to the tamer variety sometimes mentioned as living in Ankh-Morpork. It also has a larger-than-usual role for a member of the clergy: this time, for a Reverend from Omniasm ("who knows he has a prayer but wishes he had an axe"), and is also - I believe - one of the first books to introduce the character(s) of Igor.

In this, the Vampires have been invited by King Verence of Lancre to the baptism of his and Magrat's baby daughter, and decide to take the country as well as the invitation. It is up to the Witches (primarily Granny Weatherwax) to stop them from doing so, raising more than a few laugh out loud moments from me along the way.

An endless supply of wit, charm, and sass. (0 more)
The use of large words was a tiny bit of a struggle for me, only because of my dyslexia, but getting past those words was well worth the journey. (0 more)
A delicious mix of Vampires, Werewolves and the pointy end of a parasol

Well written with no trace of sparkly vampires, I'm sold. Kidding, it's a whole different genre.

This spy thriller was worth the read.

The characters were memorable and well developed.

The plot was solid and no holes presented themselves.

The story was well executed and it provided a nice escape.
