'kay, so that expert advice I was talking about this morning.
I was talking to Uni awhile back and she mentioned Pratchett in passing which reminded me I wanted to read some of the Discworld series. I've been avoiding it because there are just so many books, but I figure if they can be read on their own, then I don't have to read them all anyway... I could just stick to a single storyline or something.
Anyway, forgot about it for awhile, and then the topic of fantasy novels came up and reminded me again. And I just finished off the last book I own, so I kind of have to order more anyway. I'm not really sure which ones to start with though. ;3; I guess what I'm saying is I need some recs, either your favorites or somewhere to start? Or you can just punt me and tell me to look up stuff, myself.
I have some other books I'm going to order too, but they're not really for entertainment as much as research, so yeah. Might get World War Z too, though. Thumbs up or thumbs down? 'Cause you know I've got this horrible habit of reading about things that scare me shitless. But I can save it for later if it's just eh.
