And outside the open window --

Gosh, I love being a girl! 

__

My project today is to compile a list of all of Terry Pratchett's books, complete with short descriptions and my comments and instructions-for-the-reading-thereof. I get asked questions about his books a lot, and while I absolutely love discussing them on a case-by-case basis, [personal profile] wistfulmaid pointed out that it would be helpful to have it all in one place. I think it's a capital idea, so much fun to put into action. Keep your eyes open for an extensive Pratchett post, Coming Soon To An ElJay Near You!

The air feels very heavy. I hope it rains and rains and rains.

And So To Bed -- ****

Do you choose your books? Or do they choose you? Discuss. *

__
* to be expanded upon in a later post in which I elaborate on the books that have chosen me, beginning with the one I am reading right now. Also, we will complete ignore the fact that books are inanimate objects which cannot, in any literal sense of the word, choose anything.

** Oh, and, the Pratchett list is taking slightly longer in coming as I am obsessed with making it Comprehensive (typical! Never do unnecessary things by half measures, that's me) and probably as long as possible. There's just so much goodness to cram in!

*** And thirdly ... he is a lying nave. Er. I mean, I just pulled Rosemary Sea Salt Focaccia out of the oven, and yes it's nearly eleven but I'm going to go eat some of it. It's been a weird day. I ate lunch at 10:00 am. 

**** Why do random snatches of the poems my grandmother used to quote keep popping into my head?
