My friends, both at work and in other circles, are kind enough to lend me books on a very regular basis. I know that when they lend me books, it is because that book impressed them, and they want to share the experience with me. This is what good friends do for each other. That being said, a couple weeks ago, I was thrilled when I returned the last book I had borrowed, because it meant that for the first time in a long time, I was free to begin reading any book of my choosing. Now, I was an English major, and I am a writer, and a writer's best fuel is usually reading, so this means that my Goodreads "To read" list is always about 80 times as long as my "Read" list. There really isn't an end in sight to the list of stories that I want to crack open and devour. But you have to start somewhere. So I took a very graciously gifted bookstore gift card, headed down to said bookstore just as giddy as can be, and headed straight for my pre-selected targets.
Hi Michelle, sorry for the off topic on your post, but we're just debuting a new 2.1 version of the Discworld Reading Order Guide (I'm Krzysztof Kietzman, the creator) which can be found here: http://discworldfanatics.co.uk/discworld/reading-guide/. And I had your site bookmarked since you mentioned the previous version. So here you go :-). I hope the new version spreads like fire, since it's updated for 2012.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link, Krzysztof! And thanks for your hard work on such a handy guide. If you don't mind, I'll help you spread the link like fire by letting my readers know there is a new version. :)
