GingerAntics I thought we were doing Wintersmith. I think I‘ve gotten confused. 2y

julesG @GingerAntics - You made me double check. Wintersmith starts tomorrow. 2y

GingerAntics @julesG then I guess I don‘t have to freak out that I‘m nowhere near finished then. 🤷🏼‍♀️😂 2y

Soubhiville I keep gazing at my shelf of TP and feeling slightly sad that there are only a handful of Discworld novels left in my series reread. I think my favorite part of Thud! Was Sam‘s devotion to reading time. But I NEVER want to hear about that cow again! Of course as always I love TP‘s inter-species relations, the trolls and dwarves, Angua and the vampire, etc. The “can‘t we all just get along” vibe is so relevant to RL. ⬇️ 2y

julesG @Soubhiville Yeah, I thought this rang very true. I love that about the Discworld novels. - Re: get along 2y

Soubhiville Learning to respect each other‘s cultures and historical backgrounds can improve everyone‘s life experiences. 🙌 I also got a kick out of the coach journey that got a bit of help from the wizards. The explanation of magic involved and how much no one really trusted it, I was cracking up. 🤣 Well done as always Sir Terry. 💙 2y

BookmarkTavern This one is one of my absolute favorites. The tensions, Vimes‘s dedication to his son, Sybil (always, always Sybil my love), the parallel tensions with Sally and Angua, the ending. It‘s all just so so good. This month was my first time listening to it, and I got to say the end scene in the cave hit a little different when hearing it out loud. 2y

BookmarkTavern I totally get what you mean @Soubhiville I still haven‘t read Snuff or The Shepherd‘s Crown yet, because I know as soon as I do, there‘s nothing new after that. I might just have to start another reread when we‘re done. 😂 2y

DrexEdit These books just get better and better. I love that Sybil saves the day with her Koom Valley drawings (even if she doesn't get enough credit for that in the book). I wish TP would show more of Sybil's knowledge/staunchness. One of my favorite Discworld themes: nobody ever accomplishes difficult things on their own. The things that make the characters different are the things that are shown as their strengths and everybody has a role to play. 2y

Soubhiville @DrexEdit I love that way of looking at it. 💙 2y

khooliha I may be biased, as I just finished reading it, but the thing that hit me hardest was the recounting of the Tak story at the end. "All things strive" and delighting in the life that came unbidden - it's such a lovely moment. 2y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa I fell a bit behind there with the #PractettPosse #OokBOokClub, sorry. This one was a new read for me, and although it won‘t be my favorite Watch book I really liked how it dealt with ancient “obvious to everyone antagonist” animus, with what really happened, and how it sometimes benefits those with power to keep the real history buried and keep the conflict going. I still love how Pratchett can make us look at real issues with surreal stories. 2y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @DrexEdit Yes, that‘s lovely, I love that too. 2y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @khooliha Beautiful moment! 2y

Thud! | Terry Pratchett

Forever grateful to Terry Pratchett for giving me the line, "Assemble the facts, digest the information, consider the implications. Then go postal. But with precision." ?
