Hooked

If you like Hitchhiker’s Guide-type humor, try Terry Pratchett’s Discworld series. I’m now so completely hooked on these books that I’m sure I’ll be spending way more money than I ought so I can eventually own them all. (Yes, I know, I could get them out of the library, but Denis likes them too and I can definitely see reading them again someday.)

I started the first book 3 weeks ago, and now I’m almost done with the fifth. That’s not all that impressive, I suppose, as they’re not terribly difficult reading, but considering most of my “me” time lately has been rehearsing for the musical or practicing horn, it’s not too shabby.

I personally think it’s quite hysterical that Death rides a horse named “Binky”. I’ll never look at Carrie’s pacifier the same way again…

    Delurking to say: YAY! LOVE Terry Pratchett. Such a big fan for the longest time. (Big fan of your blog and your little girl too! In a non weird way… honest!)
    Death is hands down my favorite character in the series, although a close friend would disagree and say that her favorite is Corporal Carrot.
    Enjoy the books!
