lizbeeThe problem is, I can't read just one Pratchett novel.
See, I had enjoyed the half of the Going Postal adaptation I saw, but then I got distracted by The Dismissal, so I decided to re-read the book instead. Then, of course, I had to re-read Making Money, because I'd only read that once, and it hadn't really worked for me. (Much better on a second reading, thank you very much.)
After that, of course, I realised that I hadn't read Unseen Academicals yet, because I always have this idea that I hate the wizard books. And this isn't true; I just hate Rincewind. So I inhaled that in a day, and that was great. Really enjoyed it. Lord Vetinari/Lady Margolotta could actually take over from Moist/Adora Belle or Sam/Sybil has my Discworld OTP, if they actually had a proper novel to themselves.
Obviously, this means that I now have to re-read The Fifth Elephant, where Lady M is introduced. And then it occurs to me that I've only read Thud! once, but Night Watch comes between the two, and one should never deprive oneself of a chance to re-read Night Watch. And this will end with me re-reading all of the Watch novels out of order (just ... because), and then I'll probably re-read the Tiffany Aching sequence, because there's a new one coming out soon(ish), and that will lead to a Witches re-read.
Or, possibly, my brain will be ensnared on something else along the way, but if not, at least I have plenty to read.
