Something is coming after Tiffany ...Tiffany Aching is ready to begin her apprenticeship in magic. She expects spells and magic -- not chores and ill-tempered nanny goats! Surely there must be more to witchcraft than this!What Tiffany doesn't know is that an insidious, disembodied creature is pursuing her. This time, neither Mistress Weatherwax (the greatest witch in the world) nor the fierce, six-inch-high Wee Free Men can protect her. In the end, it will take all of Tiffany's inner strength to save herself ... if it can be done at all.A Story of Discworld

Tiffany's still not fully my cup of tea
3 stars
This is a good book, but it's certainly not my favourite Terry Pratchett book. Just like in the first Tiffany book, the Feegles are overused, to the point that they become annoying. Also, there is a very long (sometimes a tad boring) buildup, but the conclusion to the story seems really rushed. There are obvious flashes of brilliance and hints at what's to come, so I have high hopes for the next books in the Tiffany series, but this one is a bit wanting.

Stands up to a second read

A wonderful reread, this time aloud. It's just as good the second time.

Review of 'A Hat Full of Sky' on 'Goodreads'
I found the first Tiffany book a bit too YA for my taste, but this one didn't hit that button at all for me. She's tough and smart, and the Wee Free Men are their usual splendid selves.
