Pickpick

Great end to a fantastic trilogy. Solid 3.5 stars, but had to rate as pick due to the second half.

This was my October #doublespin book

Thank you, @Aimeesue. Your post was very inspiring. I made a list of a few things I learned from novels. I'm sure some of them will help me survive whatever form of apocalyptic event we're facing. Especially since i learned so much more from non-fiction books and growing up in a rural area behind the Iron Curtain.

#TheEndIsNigh - I hope not!

Chrissyreadit Wow! You must have had an interesting childhood. Where are you now? 5y
julesG @Chrissyreadit I grew up in East Germany and now live in what used to be West Germany. Growing up in East Germany in the 1980s was like growing up in the 50/60s in Western Europe. I often say that I've had the pleasure of living in four or even five decades before I turned 20, based on how backward the GDR was and my rural area on top of that. 5y
Lindy @julesG Your childhood is atypical; no wonder you are such a star! I wonder if some of your experiences were similar to Polish writer Marzena Sowa: 5y
julesG @Lindy Probably. I'll try to get my hands on a copy and let you know. 😉 5y
Lindy @julesG Yes, please do let me know. 😊 5y

The actor who plays Warlock is the opposite of his character, and reading him talk about the food fight scene is just great.

Pickpick

I managed to finish it just before the show dropped a few hours early. I‘ve been reluctant to review, fearing it would be biased by the show. I picked up new little details I totally missed before. I loved it even more than the first time, then the show was awesome, too. This is officially a double pick, and the show makes it a triple pick.

Eggbeater I just read this for the first a few months ago and I absolutely adore it! I was nervous about the show, but I'm a few episodes in and so far it's great fun. It really sticks to the essence. 5y
GingerAntics @Eggbeater they did an AMAZING job on the show. It‘s stays really faithful to the book. So glad you‘re enjoying it. 5y

Good Omens/Aziraphale‘s Bookshop is a book lover‘s paradise. I really do hope they don‘t Da,age any of the real stuff when they burnt it down.

wanderinglynn I know! I would love to spend a day (or thirty) in his bookshop! ❤️ 5y
GingerAntics @wanderinglynn oh yeah, especially now that I‘ve read about all the little details and layers within the shop that you really have to be looking for on screen. I‘d love to get a good view of the window in the ceiling. 5y

TobeyTheScavengerMonk This is great! 5y
GingerAntics @TobeyTheScavengerMonk when I first saw that scene, I half wondered if David somehow had a hand to play in that role, because it‘s so him. I guess in an informal way, it is him. I agree with Gaiman, not every actor could pull off that scene without it just being campy. 5y
