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. 😊

julesG 1.5h commute sounds awful, but it offers audiobook time. The #OokBOokClub is reading the biography early next year. 2y
Ruthiella Back when I lived in a city with good public transportation, I read on the train/tram/bus all the time. 👍 2y

julesG Wir nähern uns dem Ende des ewigen #ReadAlong. Da jetzt aber noch ein paar Short Stories aufgetaucht sind, die erst am Ende des Jahres veröffentlicht werden, haben wir die Biographie nach hinten geschoben. 2y

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⭐️

BookInMyHands Yay! The last book of the Tiffany Aching series was the last book he wrote. I‘ll tell you now that it‘s a beautiful goodbye 😭💕 3y
MariaW You should go on with exploring the Discworld. It is amazing. 😊 #gnuterrypratchett #speakhisname 3y

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!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A very fitting end to the Discworld series but I do NOT recommend reading Chapter 2 in public or anywhere there are not plenty of tissues available

I will say, this book is a bit of a hard read now versus when I was 13 with regards to the dialog around "rioting" and how cops are/should be involved.

Also mildly bummed that the dis-organizer event from Jingo didn't get brought up when Lu Tze was explaining timelines and choices and such to Vimes.

It was born in the darkness of the Circle Sea; at first just a soft floating thing, washed back and forth by tide after tide.
