julesG Guess I'm the only one who read this? I listened to the audiobook which had some fun effects, like public announcements sounded like you're actually at the train station. Other than that it was mainly commentary on different places and people on Discworld. 12h
kwmg40 None of the libraries I have access to had a copy and I wasn‘t sure this companion book was worth purchasing, so I‘m skipping it for now. Hope to get to it eventually if I can get hold of a copy. 12h
julesG @kwmg40 You didn't miss much. Honestly. Mrs Bradshaw travels the Disc by train and writes her travel log. I didn't have the impression it added a lot to my knowledge of Discworld 12h
kwmg40 Thanks. Good to know this one can be skipped without missing any really important Discworld info. I‘ve moved on to our next book, Guards, Guards, and enjoying the reread even more than my first read of it. 11h

TheSpineView I totally forgot to read this one.🤦‍♀️ I had planned to read in the first few days off April. 🐿🧠 1mo
julesG @TheSpineView Don't worry. I'm the same. 🫣🫣 Glad I have the audiobook and only about 2 more hours to go. 1mo

BarbaraJean I actually finished this one on time! To refer back to my earlier comments on Terry's use of chapters: I was sad he reverted back to no chapters here! But I did really enjoy it, chapters or not. I loved seeing Moist discover new sides to himself, and the interplay with Adora was fantastic, even if there wasn't a whole lot of it. I also liked Dick Simnel and the way Harry and Moist kind of mentor him. And the reveal about Vetinari at the end! 1mo
julesG @BarbaraJean Still wondering where I read about the chapters and what. My mind is a sponge when it comes to soaking up information, but a bank vault when I try to get the information out. I know that chapters were discussed pre writing the Tiffany Aching books. Guess I'll remember it when I least expect it and don't have anything with me to take notes. 😁 1mo
BarbaraJean @julesG Haha--yeah, these days my recall of where I read something or how I know something is a bit diminished. 😆 1mo
kwmg40 I really enjoyed this one, partly because I love travelling on trains and find the history of train travel interesting, and partly because of the subplot involving the dwarves, which provided a few surprises! 1mo
willaful It might be my mood, but I'm kind of struggling with this. The conversations lack the punch and vivid characterizations I'm used to with Pratchett... I'm bored. :-( 1w
julesG @willaful I understand. 1w
