It‘s a cold, rainy day, but I have errands to run. Enough time to enjoy my lunch and some reading, though, while I am out and about.

julesG I really enjoyed Vetinari in this one, this time around. And I don't really know why. 1d
willaful Well that's new. I don't think Pratchett has ever made me cry before. (Except his biography.) 1d

julesG @willaful It's happened to me too. This one and Shepherd's Crown 😭 16h
willaful I can't remember if I read this one before, which makes me think I must not have, though it might not have made such a strong impression when I was younger. I think this is one of his best books.

I loved the symbolism of the case. Vimes is so resistant to the trappings that came with marriage to Sybil that it was good to see one he truly loved, that represents how much she cares for him, and becomes a lifeline.

willaful And I loved his recognition and acceptance of the fact that it's time to let himself be more than a copper. He has to be a husband and father too. 6h

Discworld 03 - Equal Rites | Terry Pratchett

Esk spent days at a time with Granny Weatherwax, learning witch craft.

It seemed to consist mainly of things to remember.

Reaper Man | Terry Pratchett

Pickpick

Got to catch up with my #GrimReaders reviews before #HauntedShelf ends!

Reaper Man was a solid Discworld installment, full of Pratchett‘s signature satire and wordplay, but I felt the plot was a little all over the place. There was a wizard/Ankh-Morpork storyline and a Death storyline, and the balance between them felt uneven. That said, even a second-tier Pratchett is a worthwhile read. 3⭐️

It's finally time to dive into the discworld.

#BookishMonopoly

Ruthiella I hope you like it! I started reading them out of order and have really come to love the series. ❤️ 3w
julesG 🥳🥳 But keep in mind The Colour of Magic is the first book Pratchett published. It's not showing his strengths as a writer as much as the later books. 3w

A very enjoyable installment in the #Discworld series, mainly because of the characters featured in this story -- Angua, Sybil and the wonderful Gaspode!

"Lot of cowards, the Klatchians," said Colon. "The moment they taste a bit of cold steel they're legging it away over the sand."
Sergeant Colon had had a broad education. He'd been to the School of My Dad Always Said, the College of It Stands to Reason, and was now a postgraduate student at the University of What Some Bloke In the Pub Told Me.

"And of course they're all mad for fighting," said Colon…. ⤵️

“Vicious buggers with all those curvy swords of theirs."
"You mean, like . . . they viciously attack you while cowardly running away after tasting cold steel?" said Nobby, who sometimes had a treacherously good memory for detail.

??? Good job, Nobby…
