Rob (He / They) reviewed Wyrd Sisters by Terry Pratchett (Discworld, #6)
Odd pacing
3 stars
ALMOST 4 stars, but the pacing was a bit off in some parts. Still enjoyed it, overall.

I thought this one started really slow for me. The very beginning was interesting but then later the book made me very sleepy. It started to become better when I was 80% into it. It has many fun and interesting dialogues (Terry Pratchett's style) but I thought the rhythm of the narrative a bit dull. Overall, it was a fun story in the end.
Nice take on your average Shakespearean drama. I personally love Macbeth, so Wyrd Sisters automatically gets a few cookie points.
It's not one of my favourite Discworld novels, although I can't exactly say why. It has the Witches, and Death, so it should work fine, but it doesn't necessarily.
