About this audiobook
*NOW A MAJOR SKY TV SERIES.*
THE NUMBER ONE INTERNATIONAL AND SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER. A Discovery of Witches is the first in the must-have, must-read ALL SOULS series.
It begins with absence and desire. It begins with blood and fear. It begins with a discovery of witches.
Diana Bishop, a young scholar and descendant of witches, discovers a long-lost and enchanted alchemical manuscript deep in Oxford's Bodleian Library. Its reappearance summons a fantastical underworld, which she must navigate with a vampire, Matthew Clairmont.
This manuscript, Ashmole 782, holds the secrets of their past . . . and the key to their future.

This was unbearable. I'm a fantasy/romance girl but the romance in this was so controlling and misogynistic I found myself hating both parties. she was honestly one of the most boring heroins I've ever had the displeasure of reading about. I will be honest, I did not finish listening to this book and I think I have only ever not finished 1-2 books before this for sheer disappointment and frustration with the story.

Desperate copy of Twilight/Sabrina mix! A lot of blabing around about the same thing, if zoned out for an hour you wont have missed anything. Predictable as storry is literally the same.
