A Discovery of Witches (2018– )

Diana is a successful historian, but she has supernatural roots, and her life changes when it becomes obvious that she is the only person who can access a certain volume of history of interest to the supernatural world.

A romantic series about a modern reality mixed with supernatural stories, which intrigues in an original way in the beginning stages, and then continues its story in a way that makes one think of a superior Twilight. With some of the expected romantic clichés, A Discovery of Witches is interesting enough not to suffer from the bad name that similar stories of the same genre acquired. The actors carry their role with a lot of skill, without allowing the narrative to become ridiculous and the plot is interesting, rich and serious.
