Riveted_Reader_Melissa I read this one earlier this year, it was a fun little read, but I‘m not really a cookbook person so the recipes were lost on me. 4y
khooliha @Riveted_Reader_Melissa I -really- tried to pay attention to the recipes this time (and I may well just be bad at it) but they were lost on me too! 4y
khooliha I haven't tried to make the fish breakfast, alas, because grocery shopping is stressful enough now without me trying to find smoked haddock. Someday! 4y
khooliha Also, my favorite bit was Unlucky Charlie, who feels like he was simply cut from a full novel, possibly for being too long a footnote. 4y
Gezemice @Riveted_Reader_Melissa @khooliha I am still reading it and am now at Unlucky Charlie. zi gad the same feeling, this seems like Stephen Briggs wanted to make a Discworld companion book and Pratchett said, “here, have these random notes”. He then organized it, got some recipes, and we got a book. Definitely only for Discworld fans. And the recipes are not really the point. 4y
Gezemice @Caroline2 It is a fun little book, but it really is just full of references to existing books. I revommend starting with Mort or Men At Arms for Discworld novices. The Color of Magic is more of a flurry of humorous ideas than a good book. 4y
Caroline2 @Gezemice oh ok! That‘s interesting! Thanks for the heads up! I‘ll check out mort or men at arms instead. 👍 4y
gossamerchild I thought this was pretty fun. There were enough snarky comments in the cookbook section that kept me going 😆😆. The illustrations were incredible! 4y
