Ok, so I finished my reread of all the Tiffany Achings in preparation for the last new Pratchett. And it is very clear to me that I have been taking an absurdly long time (for me) to do so, because I don't want there to be a last new Pratchett. Am I ready for it now? Should I just embark on a lifetimes denial that the book exists?
You're not gonna jokey-rhyme your way out of this one.

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 know I'm not ready. I think some day I might be? But not yet.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I read it, being of the school of "rip that bandage off", cried at a few points, and then embarked on a re-read of all the witches' books, starting with Equal Rites. I do want to get a nice boxed set of the Aching series for Peanut.

I started. I was definitely not ready. But I don't think I can quit now.

Oh I would like to do that.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I finished. There were tears.

I just came to the realization the Granny Weatherwax would not approve of this plan.
I'm still not ready, but maybe sooner than I thought.

I wasn't ready. I should have waited.

Our wings are not tired.
I still have a significant backlog. Lack of sufficient reading time is working in my favor here.
