A Discovery of Witches

It had a solid start that hooked me in and I was getting more and more involved in the story excited to see where it led, but for me the story really fell short with the lack of world building. The characters were cool and I liked them but their history, how they worked, and their motives for why they do what they do all fell short for me. I was excited to learn more about how magic would unfold and what makes this world unique and learn how magic works but it's all just pretty vague without anything interesting going on. Im sure the following books will pick up but I did not enjoy it enough to continue the series.
