pickThird time. Better. Every. Time. As I believe I said last time, Snuff has an unfair lead because it's the first Vimes/Discworld/Pratchett I ever read, but Thud! and Snuff are in an eternal battle as to which is my favourite. Each time I read this book I feel more impressed by how well it is put together. I love that reading this book as a whole is as engaging an experience as the climax, especially for repeat reads, watching how things develop, 1/
so-so30/100 This is my least favorite volume so far. I've finally got used to the change in artwork, Gieni's art grows on you, but the story was so confusing. Flashbacks, flashforward, alternate realities, alternate futures, alternate pasts, all jumbled together so by the end I wasn't sure who was who, who died and who replaced them. 2 ⭐⭐💫 #Read2025 #SeriesLove2025
Sybil has many fine qualities. 😏
Not letting Vimes get away with an uneditorialized statement/rant is among them. 😁
I love her. I love their dynamic. ♥️
Cue the evil laughter. There really should be a smiling emoji with sharper teeth. That feels appropriate. 😁😈
pickLove Sam Vimes 😆 I wish someone would adapt City Watch into a TV series. This got #doublespin done early in March, which is good cos my #bookspin choice is 1100 pages long 🤯
so-soJust finished this and it was okay. There were some really stupid plot points and decisions made but it was tolerable. This and the other two novels following it also seem to be taking place and are the cause of the events in The Out of the Abyss module. (My OOTA campaign is on a hiatus currently, but it's so amusing to me that my characters are unfortunately there to experience all of that mess)

Last week was very off for me. I got very little reading done due to fatigue and things out of my control. Made little progress with Archmage, and was too tired for any physical reads. I hope this week will go better.

This series continues to get better and better! I really enjoyed the humor in this book and I found myself laughing out loud several times.

I am still struggling to find time to sit down and read WFTD, but I am aiming for next week. In the meantime I am continuing my Drizzt book binge, they are ones I can kind of zone out on and it wouldn't make much of a difference, so I listen to them when I play my fav MMO.

The heartbreak of bigotry, how thoroughly hate enshrined in tradition can destroy, can threaten a better future, is shown to exquisitely sharp effect, but commentary on the how the vulnerability of those without support can be so lost to substance abuse, the dangers of unchecked power, in political and policing spheres, is also present and memorable. 6d
