Third reread. Still my favourite book. The one that got me out of a decade long reading slump, before I'd read any other Discworld books. Having now read all of them, and reread all the City Watch books, I'm overjoyed that it lives up to my memory. Vimes remains a character who you regularly see thoughtfully consider the challenge to his own assumptions and then do better as a result. Pratchett's writing in his voice is fully developed. 1/?
Having just survived the latest at work, I am in thundering agreement. 😫
Third time. Better. Every. Time. As I believe I said last time, Snuff has an unfair lead because it's the first Vimes/Discworld/Pratchett I ever read, but Thud! and Snuff are in an eternal battle as to which is my favourite. Each time I read this book I feel more impressed by how well it is put together. I love that reading this book as a whole is as engaging an experience as the climax, especially for repeat reads, watching how things develop, 1/
Sybil has many fine qualities. 😏
Not letting Vimes get away with an uneditorialized statement/rant is among them. 😁
I love her. I love their dynamic. ♥️
Cue the evil laughter. There really should be a smiling emoji with sharper teeth. That feels appropriate. 😁😈
Love Sam Vimes 😆 I wish someone would adapt City Watch into a TV series. This got #doublespin done early in March, which is good cos my #bookspin choice is 1100 pages long 🤯
Better every time. I love rereading Discworld books, I just feel I grow to appreciate the story and the writing and the world that much more each time. It's part of the City Watch collection, featuring Sam Vimes and a the usual suspects and so it's a favourite, but it's also spectacular as a work on its own. The gender politics, and the regular politics, the contrast of civilization and savagery, 1/?
