TheSpineView I totally forgot to read this one.🤦‍♀️ I had planned to read in the first few days off April. 🐿🧠 5d
julesG @TheSpineView Don't worry. I'm the same. 🫣🫣 Glad I have the audiobook and only about 2 more hours to go. 5d

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! 4d
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. 😁 4d
BarbaraJean @julesG Haha--yeah, these days my recall of where I read something or how I know something is a bit diminished. 😆 3d
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! 3d

BookmarkTavern I love all the side characters in this book so much! Mr Bent, and Igor, and Mr Fusspot! I‘d read an entire book about Mr Bent. I did want more Adora Belle in this story. 1mo
BookmarkTavern I do like that Moist is like “Adora Belle is 90% of my impulse control” and the rest of the city just seems to know that. 1mo

julesG @BookmarkTavern Mr Bent is an interesting character indeed. 1mo
julesG And they are only engaged at the moment, what happens once they are married. Will he be sedate? 1mo
Balibee146 My favourite thing about the Moist Von Lipwig series is the good amount of Vetinari we get. I love the way he appropriates Mr Fusspot, yes he wants to hold on to him as the bank Chairman; but I have a sneaking suspicion he also really wanted the little doggie 😊 1mo
julesG @Balibee146 Agree, more Vetinari is nice. And that's how I read it too, Vetinari was looking forward to having a doggie. 1mo
kwmg40 I enjoyed this book, though not as much as Going Postal. I too find Vetinari a really interesting character, and loved meeting Mr. Fusspot. 1mo
BarbaraJean I really enjoyed this one, but I agree with @kwmg40--not as much as I enjoyed Going Postal. I felt like the social/governmental satire was stronger there, plus more Adora Belle! Prior to this buddy read, I'd only read Mort and the Tiffany Aching books, so Vetinari is getting slowly revealed to me as we move along, and I'm finding him fascinating. @Balibee146 I agree, he wanted a doggie! He needed a little buddy now that Wuffles is gone 😢 1mo
Balibee146 @BarbaraJean awww little Wuffles 😟 1mo
