A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness
This book was only just released this month and it has already caused a stir amongst readers of the genre. A discovery of witches is the first part of the All Souls Trilogy, so there is more where this came from if you enjoy it.
Deep in the stacks of Oxford's Bodleian Library, young scholar Diana Bishop unwittingly calls up a bewitched alchemical manuscript in the course of her research. Descended from an old and distinguished line of witches, Diana wants nothibng to do with sorcery; so after a furtive glance and a few notes, she banishes the book to the stacks. But her discovery sets a fantastical underworld stirring, and a horde of daemons, witches, and vampires soon descends upon the library. Diana has stumbled upon a coveted treasure lost for centuries - and she is the only creature who can break its spell.
