Welcome to Litsy!

Thrifted finds from goodwill today. I am a fan of their senior discount. I need more Terry Pratchett in my life.

Oh my goodness! I did it! I wasn't sure I was going to be able to finish this book while on vacation.

This was my first book in the Discworld series. There was a lot of world building and strange things happening. I admit, I was confused the majority of the time. I enjoyed the wit, the setting, and how it ended. But for the life of me, I can't explain what the story was about. 3⭐️

When sourcery returns to the Disc, & throws the wizards all into chaos, what is a cowardly Rincewind to do but put together a ragtag group to maybe save the world? Or run away, one of the two.

A bit of a slow start, & a rushed/abrupt ending, but fun exploring the Disc anyway. I really found myself charmed by the side characters, & laughing at the cameos towards the end. Though I had hoped for more between Coin & Rincewind. 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑

The life of Terry Pratchett, written by his longtime personal assistant and friend, Rob Wilkins.

This was so perfect. It was a heartbreaking joy to learn more about the man whose writing changed my life. His background, his inspirations, his dedication to writing. & it‘s nice to know that he appears to be as genuine & good hearted as I thought he‘d be. #GNUTerryPratchett #OokBOokClub 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗

This is definitely a biography which can be called Pratchettian. Wilkins used the notes of Terry and his own memories to write the biography in style of Pratchett - meaning a good lot of laughs and me crying in the end (because we all know the sad ending). I actually always thought there will be time to meet my favourite author, till there was no time anymore. 😓 #gnuterrypratchett #speakhisname

Ever since I am back in Europe, I did not have time to start reading again. But I am using my 1,5 hour daily commute to start hearing all the books on my reading list. Right now I am browsing through everything Pratchetty like his biography. 😊

I enjoyed this second book in the series more than the first. The numerous nomes have seemed to grow on me. 😂
Read this as my #doublespin for January!

Thanks so much to @BookInMyHands for the great #audiobook recommendation! This is my first foray into the world of Terry Pratchett and Discworld and I thoroughly enjoyed it. So many funny moments and I definitely plan on continuing with the series. 4.25⭐️

A philosophical commentary on religion, faith & society/community with loads of humor.

So far this is my 4th Discworld book. Of the 4 books I think this one could be read at any point in the series because no character that I know of is a repeat so far but a short appearance by Death.

The God Om wakes up in the body of a tortoise & wants to find out why and Brutha attempts to find truth in religion. This alone 😂

Though provoking!
