Night Watch | Terry Pratchett

Soubhiville One of my favorites! I don‘t really like this cover for it though. It‘s much too tame for a TP novel. 1w

julesG Sorry, hit the wrong button. Wanted to add, the cover must look a bit stuffy for a modern classic. 😉 1w

kwmg40 After working through the Rincewind books, many of which were heavily dominated by male characters, it was refreshing to see a more diverse and interesting cast. I especially liked Igorina and Jackrum. I also liked how Pratchett poked fun at the conventions of warfare and at the propaganda that tends to surround wars. 4w
BookmarkTavern I think Maladict and Polly were my favorites. I‘ve always related to Polly a lot, being the caretaker so long it becomes habit. And I found myself paying a lot more attention to the politics and religious fanaticism of Borogovia. It feels a lot more relevant right now. 😅 4w

julesG @BookmarkTavern it does feel very relevant right now. 3w
julesG Polly is my favourite, but Maladict and Igor sure are second. And Jackrum, of course. 3w
BookmarkTavern @julesG I really didn‘t like Jackrum the first time through. I thought they were abrasive and a bully. But, on reread, knowing what we know about the character, I appreciated them a lot more. (edited) 3w

Guess I am a Book-Dragon.🐉

The final tally says 445 books read. Not including the 8 I DNF'd. My goal was 250.

I took part in 10 #BuddyRead and 1 #ReadAlong on StoryGraph

Please ignore pages and hours on StoryGraph, they aren't correct. I was too lazy to enter the correct editions I was reading.

I finished the #52bookclub24 challenge for the first time!!!

Librarybelle Excellent! Congratulations! 1mo

AllDebooks I had to bail on this, too much for me, along with The Long Walk! 😱 1mo
BarkingMadRead @AllDebooks it was a lot, and knowing that he pulled it from the shelves added a little weight! 1mo

Karkar What always surprises me about this one every time I read it is back when he wrote it school shootings were not a thing. But you would think from this book he wrote it today. 1mo
5feet.of.fury Yeah, that was nuts. I can see why he pulled it after Columbine (and the continued epidemic of school shootings) with the way Charlie is presented in the end/showing the impact on the hostages as positive. 1mo
BookwormAHN @5feet.of.fury That always bothered me too. It was almost cult leaderish. 1mo
5feet.of.fury @BookwormAHN agree! Cult leader is what came into my mind, too. 1mo
