TieDyeDude I have a copy I'd be happy to send to someone. It was a library discard, very light water staining. Tag me in a comment. (edited) 1d

BookwormAHN I enjoyed this one but I thought it ended rather quickly and could of used another chapter or two. 6d
5feet.of.fury I did not like this one, plotwise was ok -but seemed like 1/2 an idea to me -although many of his you never get a “why & how” and it‘s more about the characters react to the situation, which is very true here and the characters I thought were good except that I think the language/tone was wrong for the age / time period of the MC. Just in general the silly stuff he says. 6d

5feet.of.fury Also why the gross creepy incest ending that adds nothing to the story or plot in any way? 6d
BarkingMadRead @bookwormahn @5feet.of.fury 💯 agree, the incest seemed like a weird and unnecessary afterthought and the story itself could have been so much more! 6d
5feet.of.fury @BarkingMadRead I was yelling “Ewww whyyyy Stephen” immediately tanked the book for me, I wasn‘t super impressed with this one anyway & that was ridiculous. &so pointless 6d
PaperbackPirate The incest plot twist didn‘t ruin it for me but for sure I was like …huh. I made peace with it thinking that was supposed to explain where his “gift” sprung from? @5feet.of.fury @BarkingMadRead 5d
PaperbackPirate This was my favorite of King‘s 3 Hard Case Crimes. 1d

#Discworld

Really enjoyed my reread. The audio is fantastic. The jingle for the footnotes worked really well, the story held up and I am looking forward to the discussion next month.

What # are we using for this read? Is there an easy way to tag everyone?

Sourcery: A Discworld Novel | Terence David John Pratchett

Just a friendly reminder that we are setting off on the second round around the #Discworld today with #Sourcery.

Looking forward to our discussion next month!

PS: this book might work for some of the #52bookclub24 bonus prompts for April - I'm definitely using it for "desert you"

julesG Would have tagged you all earlier, but Litsy wasn't willing. 4w
BookmarkTavern Yay! I‘m so excited! (edited) 4w
TheSpineView @julesG That happens some times. 4w
Deblovestoread Sometimes it doesn‘t want to play nice. I‘m very excited as a first time reader of these books. 💜🧙💜 4w
BookWrym I have hit the audiobook already and the narration is great. Read by Colin Morgan, Bill Nighy & Peter Serafinowicz. The footnotes have their own little jingle and I am loving it. Having previously read the paperbacks I am finding audio a delightful way to revisit. Plans for this read along will be whatever format I can my hands on. 4w
julesG @BookWrym Same here. I previously listened to the Nigel Planer narration, but have the new one queued up for this round. 4w
TheAromaofBooks Yay!! This will be my first time reading a Pratchett book. I'm so interested to try out his writing!! 4w
willaful D'oh! I thought the discussion was this month and just finished it. I hope I remember something to discuss. 😂 4w
julesG @willaful I'm sure you will. 😂 4w
rretzler @willaful I finished it on the date we were to have started! I had totally forgotten what quick and easy reads these were. 3w
rretzler @BookWrym Also loving that footnote jingle! I wish ALL audiobooks had that! 3w

Chrissyreadit I‘ve not read any Discworld books- should i read The Color of Magic first? 1mo
julesG @Chrissyreadit No. Pratchett himself said to start with Sourcery and read the first two novels later when you know your way around the Discworld a bit. 1mo
Chrissyreadit ok- ordering now. 1mo
BarbaraJean Somehow I missed this post, but I'm seeing the tag pop up on Litsy and so I investigated. 😁 Would you add me to the tag list? Thank you! 5d
julesG @BarbaraJean sure! Welcome to the #OokBOokClub. 5d
