GingerAntics I loved this one. It was so fun. I love Tiffany and the man Mac feegle. I can‘t wait to read the other 4 books in this sub series. 3y

hannah-leeloo I was given the lady book to this series by accident as I love Terry so I'm having to try and find the first ones lol 3y

BookmarkTavern I love Tiffany so much. Her choice to try and learn everything she can to make sure that more bad things don‘t happen feels way too relatable to past me. And current me. 😆 I hadn‘t actually read the Tiffany books before, and I‘m so glad to be reading them now. ❤️ 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa I love these, I had read 1 other Discworld before finding Tiffany, and then read all of Tiffany‘s books…and even on a re-read years later, it was still just as good as the first time. I love Tiffany‘s persistence, and of course the Nac Mac Feegle pictsies (not pixies)…even sticky Little brother. And I want even more about her Granny Aching. 3y

BookmarkTavern @Riveted_Reader_Melissa Wait, I‘ve been listening to the audiobook, it‘s spelled PICTsies?!? 😂😂😂😂😂 Oh my god, I love it. (edited) 3y

khooliha Much like Maurice, I'm excited for the child I know to be old enough for me to give her these books. I really like this one! I do think, more than the other "YA"-ish Discworld books, that this one is the most paced like a book for kids. I really like that Tiffany does some of the biggest magic we have ever seen in the series during this climax - a child doesn't know what they "can't" do. 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @ozma.of.oz Yes it is! Isn‘t that awesome…the are little tattooed kilted pictsies! 3y

BookmarkTavern @Riveted_Reader_Melissa That is absolutely delightful. And an endorsement of going back and reading the print at a later date. I‘m missing all the good puns! 😂 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @ozma.of.oz who of course have a bit of a Scottish drawl and love drinking and fighting. 😂 3y

BookmarkTavern @khooliha I completely agree with you on the pacing! I am also waiting for my nibling to get a little older. 4 is a touch too young to really appreciate Pratchett. 😆 3y

BookmarkTavern @Riveted_Reader_Melissa The audiobook narrator does a truly excellent job of getting that Scottish burr down! 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @ozma.of.oz The spelling on the teachers posters at the teaching fair are great too. I don‘t have it right in front of me at the moment, but geography is more like Joffey with Glaseers 3y

khooliha @ozma.of.oz The kid I know is 2.5, I just love planning ahead! 3y

BookmarkTavern @khooliha Me too! I‘ve got a spreadsheet going of “these books are for the fifth birthday, there are for six” etc. 😁 3y

DrexEdit This was my first ever Tiffany Aching and I'm totally in love with her! I'm going to re-read this one sometime very soon. @ozma.of.oz I have the audiobook on hold at the library now, it's just gonna be weeks before it's available, but I think this has got to be a fantastic audiobook! Now to put the other Aching audiobooks on hold. . . 👍 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @DrexEdit They are great on audiobook! 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @ozma.of.oz here‘s the poster “JOGRAFFY! JOGRAFFY! JOGRAFFY!
FOR TODAY ONLY:
ALL MAJOR LAND MASSES AND OCEANS
PLUS EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNO
ABOUT GLASSIERS!
ONE PENNY, OR ALL MAJOR VEJTABLES
ACSEPTED!” “Tiffany had read enough to know that, while he might be a whiz at major land masses, this particular teacher could have done with some help from the man running the stall next door: THE WONDERS OF PUNCTUATION AND SPELLING” 3y

julesG @Riveted_Reader_Melissa 🤣🤣 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @julesG I know… it‘s one that is fabulous on audiobook (the accents are great), but the print version has some great gems too. 3y

julesG @Riveted_Reader_Melissa I'll have to do re-reread on paper. 😁 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @ozma.of.oz here‘s the pictsies quote ““I gave them some milk and they tipped it over!” “You gave the Nac Mac Feegle milk?” “Well, you said they‘re pixies!” “Not pixies, pictsies. They certainly don‘t drink milk!”” 3y

gossamerchild I am also in love with this subset of Discworld novels, and I can't believe I haven't read them before. Cannot get enough of Tiffany. 3y
