I love how the book just gives no contexts for daemons whatsoever. Literally, the first words of the book are "Lyra and her daemon" and you just have to piece together what that means. It's great!
It's time for my next live-tweet-read-a-long thing! This time, it's "The Golden Compass" by Phillip Pullman!
This'll actually be my 3rd attempt at reading this book; each previous time, I get roughly a third through before just stopping for some reason. However, this time, nothing is going to stop me!
I do wonder how I would feel if I'd read the Discworld books in chronological order instead of the last several first. I know I'd still enjoy them, but I ponder if I'd still find Vimes, Colon, and Nobby as enjoyable as I do now if I saw them as their debut selves.
It's wildly enjoyable to see Captain Vimes, a character I'm very familiar with, struggle to do actual police work.
I've encountered my first ever footnote within a footnote. I must say, Sir Terry's usage of footnotes was always something I found so interesting about Discworld. A part of me wants to dabble in using them myself, but at the same time, I feel like I couldn't make use of them as well.

"A good bookshop is just a genteel black hole that knows how to read."
Ah, it's good to be reading Discworld again. :)
Starting my next "live-read" thing either "Guards! Guards!" by Terry Pratchett. I'm a huge fan of Discworld, but I've read them all wonky and out of order, which has been great fun. Sam Vimes and the City Watch are always a great time, so I'm excited to leap into this!
My book "A Promise of Fire, Volume 1" is available for pre-order! Check it out now!
