Ab die Post: Ein Scheibenwelt-Roman | 
pickStill working my way through belated reviews…this goes back to early February for the #OokBOokClub.
I thoroughly enjoyed this, from the characters to the satire to the fact that it had CHAPTERS.* And the reappearance of characters from The Truth. And golems! There‘s so much more substance to the characters here (I‘m looking at you, Rincewind), which gave more depth to the story overall—and its satire of government was maybe a little too ⤵️
I sent my #cbbc package out today and should arrive on Monday!! @BethM @Mommamanzi
If Moist was any judge, the man in front of him was the biggest fraud he's ever met. And he *advertised* it. That was... style. He told them what he was, and they laughed and loved him for it.

pickMoist von Lipwig is hanged for his crimes. And then, he‘s put in charge of rehabilitating the Ankh-Morpork post office. Only, there‘s competition that Moist didn‘t count on & maybe a curse?
This remains 1 of my favorites of the Disc. Every time, I pay attention to something else. For instance, Gilt gives me such strong vibes of current political figures who shall remain nameless. & I fall in love w/ Adora Belle & Moist so much. 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗
#OokBOokClub-ers, our Discworld adventure continues TODAY with #GoingPostal!
Looking forward to our discussion next month!
Happy reading!

USPS has announced they will stop accepting all mail and packages destined for Canada until our postal strike is resolved. #postalstrike #canada #usa #canadapost . If you are doing #swaps #litsyswaps of any kind involving Canadian recipients please make alternate arrangements and alert you hosts.
pick#doublespin for Nov and my new favourite Discworld book! I‘m a bit sad that I‘m nearing the end of this series, it‘s so funny & clever. This one I found particularly good, really enjoyed the character of Moist 😆
Thank you so much for my goodies @KT1432 … I love it all!!! (I just realized that I was so excited about the Reese‘s dark thins that I didn‘t include them in my picture because they were already in my bag to go to school!). Happy fall!!

*SQUEAK*
The Ankh-Morpork Post Office made a delivery today!
My found family swap package is all set and ready to send out tomorrow!! #Litsyfoundfamilyswap @KateReadsYA
pickI know I recently reread Snuff and Thud!, but honestly THIS is currently in contention for my favourite Discworld book. It's so wonderful to reread! Like an adventure that doesn't require a road trip, the sneaky thinking, the big ideas, the almost accidentally redemptive quality, the darkly and slyly and then broadly humourous, the smidgen of the fantastical that doesn't overwhelm with world building, that is basically just enchanting background,
Thank you so much for the thoughtful package @Born.A.Reader … happy Jolabokaflod everyone!!
@MaleficentBookDragon #jolabokaflodswap
I got my third #jolabokaflodswap📦 plus a present from my mom.👩
Can‘t wait for tomorrow. I hope everyone is excited.
According to my excel sheet there are still some people who have not posted that they sent their boxes out. I may have missed your post. If I did not like or comment on that post, comment below. If you haven't sent your package out yet you are living on the edge (you are welcome for Aerosmith living in your head right now). Post when you do send it out. And Harpy IS judging you. She judged me when I sent mine out too.

I received 2 of my #jolabokaflodswap packages. I also sent mine out. Since I didn't take a photo, here's a pic of Hades looking adorable and not letting me read.
Dropped my #jolabokaflodswap at post office today! It should arrive at its location on Saturday! @MaleficentBookDragon
Sent off my #JolabokaflodSwap package this morning. Should arrive Saturday. #JS #WinterGames #BucketList #ReindeerGamers
Thank you for all of the extra goodies @Mommamanzi !! I can‘t believe another round of #cbbc is done!!
This is one of my favorite activities that lasts year round! Please join us for #LMPBC and exploring new book titles and genres! Lots of fun and low pressure reading! Go to @suvata ‘s page for the link to her Google Sheet of groups. Lots of room new groups and a few who need just one (or three) more to make a full group! Best Book Club around!
I love the fall/Halloween goodies @Mommamanzi !! And that pumpkin spice popcorn??? Yes please!!! #cbbc
pickI mostly enjoyed this one.
I listened to the audiobook from BorrowBox, voiced by Tony Robinson, funny chap!
Read for a reading prompt
3.75/5
“Steal five dollars and you‘re a common thief. Steal thousands and you‘re either the government or a hero.”
“Sometimes the truth is arrived at by adding all the little lies together and deducting them from the totality of what is known.”
“What kind of man would put a known criminal in charge of a major branch of government? Apart from, say, the average voter.” ⤵️ 5d
*I love Terry Pratchett, but his aversion to chapters has been a mild annoyance thus far. The lack of chapters somehow has the opposite effect from what I assume Pratchett was aiming at—it‘s harder for me to sink into the book when I don‘t have clear units of content to anticipate. My brain wants those clear divisions.
Also also: this was my 2004 pick for the #192025 challenge with @librarybelle! (edited) 5d
