meredeth<p>finished Thief of Time today, i enjoyed this one more than the last couple, and i found the ending very satisfying. then i went ahead and read the entirety of The Last Hero. i'd never read it before, and it's short and has all my favorite characters in it. (^_^) next up is The Amazing Maurice. i've never read any of Pratchett's YA books, so i'm looking forward to it. <a href="https://bookwor.ms/tags/discworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>discworld</span></a> (only 14 left to go!)</p>
