Love this quote.

charl08 Genius. Much missed. 5y

OriginalCyn620 That is a good one! 👍🏻 5y

AlaMich This quote likely explains a great deal about the anti-intellectualism rampant in *ahem* certain circles. 5y

This is a general guideline. Start wherever you want, skip whichever you like.

The numbered books are marked according to their order in the Discworld series.

GingerAntics Have you guys read Dodger yet? I‘m not sure where that falls in his many books. I loved that book. 5y

Gezemice @GingerAntics Yes, we read it last fall. We are reading in chronological order. I enjoyed it and read the entire trilogy :) 5y

GingerAntics @Gezemice wait, you it‘s a trilogy? That was one of two Prachett books my library had. 5y

Gezemice @GingerAntics Oh sorry. That was Truckers, after which I read Diggers and Wings. Senior moment... we have not read Dodger yet. (edited) 5y

GingerAntics @Gezemice lol senior moment! Those two titles are remarkably close. I need to find more of his books. I really enjoyed Dodger. I hope you enjoy it when you get to it. lol 5y

rockpools Thanks for the tag! My holds have only just come in today - but our library doesn‘t do Thursdays (!) - so I might not make this month‘s reading 😐 5y

hgrimes Thank you!! I took a break but I‘m going to try to jump back in for Good Omens! Love that book! 5y

toric Ooo can i join this? What do i need to do? Im re-reading all of discworld in publication order anyway but im ahead of the schedule but Good Omens and Diggers wont affect that 😁 5y

julesG Sure, @toric. I'll add you to the tagged people list. 5y

kgriffith @julesG, you can also add the hashtag to the wiki and include the image so there‘s a static spot people can refer to for the schedule :) 5y

julesG @kgriffith Thanks. Will do that tomorrow. 5y

TheSpineView I would love to join you guys. Just finished Good Omens in December and can pick up with you in February. Thanks!😊 5y

Laura317 That‘s great! Thanks. I‘m just reading along on the Disc World books, but I love seeing what others think on the non DW ones. 5y

CSeydel There‘s a wiki? 5y

Gezemice Thank you! I am with @cseydel - there is a wiki? 5y

jmtrivera I'm so far behind! 5y

gossamerchild Wow. I don't think I realized it had already been a year. Nice. Thanks for posting this again! 5y

SconsinBookyBadger It‘s been a year already? Feels like yesterday we were starting the OoKbOoK read a long. 😊 5y

julesG @TheSpineView please join us for the discussion of Good Omens. Shall I add you to the list of tagged people? 5y

julesG @CSeydel I think @kgriffith @Litsy @TimSpalding should make the wiki more public 5y

TimSpalding What do you mean making the wiki more public? 5y

julesG @gossamerchild @anansigirl Yes, it's been a year already. I am hoping Litsy will be up and running still when we close and discuss the last book. It's a shame @TricksyTails no longer is on Litsy, I miss her. 5y

julesG @TimSpalding Littens don't seem to know that there is a wiki. 5y

TimSpalding Okay, what's the best way to promote it? 5y

julesG @TimSpalding Make a blurb, tag people like @MrBook to spread the word. 5y

TimSpalding Are you in the beta Facebook group? Can I add you? (edited) 5y

julesG @TimSpalding I'm not in the group. You may add me. I'm Julia Guttzeit (nee Reuter) on fb 5y

MrBook Tag me for what? 😁 5y

julesG @MrBook For spreading the word on the Litsy wiki 5y

julesG @MrBook actually, for spreading the word on nearly anything. I'm quite sure you'd be great for anything, from upcoming new publications to new Litsy babies, weddings,... 5y

MrBook @julesG , thank you for the kind words ☺️🤗! I‘d do anything to help Litsy along. There is @LitsyHappenings , @LitsySwaps , @LitsyBirthdays , and I know @BarbaraTheBibliophage helped co-coordinate a geographical accounting of many Littens. 😁 Is that what you‘re referring to about the wiki? Or the Litsy FB group? Or a combo of those things? 5y

julesG @MrBook I suppose it's a combination of the things you've mentioned. I have yet to enter the FB group. 5y

MrBook 👍🏻👍🏻🙌🏻 5y

BarbaraTheBibliophage @MrBook The geographical accounting of Littens wasn‘t my project. Can‘t recal whose it was! But yes, I‘ll spread the word about a Litsy wiki. That‘s awesome! 5y

julesG @BarbaraTheBibliophage Let us get it under way first,though 😉 5y

TheSpineView @julesG Yes, please! Thanks! 😊 5y

I have never read Pratchett, but that‘s about to change!

Anyone else in for the #ookbookclub Terry Pratchett #epicbuddyread? @TricksyTails has done the legwork, and we‘re all set to read them all, one book per month. 😃

TricksyTails You're awesome!! Thank you for sharing! 🤗 6y

rubyslippersreads I never have either, but thanks to @TricksyTails I'm going to. 😊 6y

GrilledCheeseSamurai @rubyslippersreads @sprainedbrain You are both in for a great ride! I've the read the majority of these books a few times now...and I'll tell ya, I didn't even hesitate in wanting to do another read through when I found out @TricksyTails was doing a buddy read for them. They're just that much fun! 🙌 6y

jmtrivera Ooooh. 6y

sprainedbrain @GrilledCheeseSamurai my uncle has been recommending Discworld to me for years and years... he will be happy I‘m finally going in. 😃 6y

AmyG I‘m in. And I am very excited. 6y

ghosthost I was thinking about trying the Discworld part of it. 6y

GrilledCheeseSamurai @sprainedbrain Awesome. With as many books as there are some books are obviously better than others but over all the series is excellent and definitely something to not be missed.😍 6y

Tamra I‘m in! I‘ve only read one novel and it was this year. 😁 6y

Smarkies You are in for a treat! 6y

ReadingRover I might get in on this. I was just saying I wanted to go through the discworld series. I‘ve read a few here and there but I feel like it‘s a series I‘ll enjoy straight through. 6y

Kristy_K I‘ve been meaning to read The Colour of Magic. I‘ll join for that month at least! 6y

TricksyTails @rubyslippersreads @GrilledCheeseSamurai Aww! Yay! *happy dance* 👏😊 6y

Carolyn11215 Sounds fun! I‘ve read a little ways into the Discworld series. Think I‘m hesitant to read through too quickly since there will never be any more. Was devastated by Terry Pratchett‘s passing! 6y

JaclynW I've read 2 books by Pratchett and loved them both! I'd love to join in when I can. 6y

Heideschrampf Can i still join in, please?!?? I've gone through them in publication order last year and i'd be happy to start over again... 😍 6y

sprainedbrain @Heideschrampf Of course! We start next month. 😃 6y

laurieluna @JennAndrew 6y

JennAndrew @miralunasbooknook @TricksyTails this sounds excellent! I‘m definitely in. I know I missed the first ones, but I‘m pleased to get the start of Discworld. So are we discussing CoM on March 8th or April 8th? Sorry to be so dense! 🤦🏻‍♀️😂 And is the discussion here on Litsy? I‘m excited! Thanks @miralunasbooknook 😊👌🏻 6y

TricksyTails @JennAndrew Yay! The Colour of Magic starts Mar 8. The following month on the 7th, I will make a post for the open discussion marked with a spoiler tag. Just click on it and we‘ll be discussing in the comments. If you want to see an example of a discussion look up #EpicBuddyRead for The Name of the Wind. I‘ll be doing it similarly. Happy you‘re joining! 6y

TricksyTails @miralunasbooknook Thank you!! 6y
