Hogfather is probably my favorite, but Reaper Man is so lovely and quietly heartbroken/breaking.
What should I do, then? Send her a gift? Sacrifice? … Unholy fruit basket?

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."

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

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 am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I like the Rincewind books. The Luggage! Twoflowers!
Death is in pretty much every book, right? Sometimes not for long, but he shows up...

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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I like the Rincewind books, but I'm not a big fan of The Last Continent.
I haven't read Moist yet! But I hear good things.

Guilty. I know there are problematic issues with them (hello, Twoflower racism!) but I really love the Discworld. They are basically my perpetual comfort reread, a spot previously held by HHGttG. But with so many more books, I am farther from being able to quote the entire "trilogy" in order.
