A Hat Full of Sky

       In "A Hat Full of Sky" by Terry Pratchett, a 12 year old witch named Tiffany goes off to be the apprentice of an adult witch named Ms. Level.  A hiver, or an evil spirit, follows after her to possess her powerful body, although Tiffany does not know this. Terry Pratchett does an incredible job of giving characters a very distinct nature.
      For example, when the characters speak, they almost never say anything normal, like "hey!" Their convesations always reveal something interesting, and in that way, you learn more about the people in a few sentences than you could in a chapter of a different book. The language he uses is so unique I take note of it to think about how to do what he does in my writing.
     "A Hat Full of Sky' portrays a very intricate world of creatures and ideas about the world, all written very fluently and in a way that captures your attention.
