Five pages into Mort and I can say YES.
Also I love instant downloads. I resisted e-readers but I love not having to wait for a new book to come in the mail.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, definitely Mort, and also Hogfather.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Hogfather is probably my favorite, but Reaper Man is so lovely and quietly heartbroken/breaking.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Oh yeah, Reaper Man too. I just love all the Death books.
And all the Witches books.
And all the Vimes books.
Um.

Liese, I love all the Discworld books except the Rincewind ones. And even then, The Last Continent is pretty damn funny.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of Rincewind either, except when he ran into Cohen the Barbarian.

I like the Rincewind books. The Luggage! Twoflowers!
Death is in pretty much every book, right? Sometimes not for long, but he shows up...

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Heck, I even like the Moist Von Lipwig books.

Because those are great!
I may be an uncritical reader of Discworld books. It's possible.
