Shallow of me? Perhaps.Ĥ) In the discussion Tiffany has with Mistress Weatherwax at the end of chapter 9, Weatherwax gives Tiffany some very important information about how to be a witch. And I remember thinking that first time around that Tiffany was going to have a very hard time forgiving herself……and I actually didn’t think too much on how Miss Level was going to treat Tiffany from then on. (By the way, the Discworld books that feature Death are my second favorites to the Tiffany Aching quadrology). But I distinctly remember being shocked dumb that Pratchett actually killed someone, and such a central character to this book, and not in a Death story. Since I have read this book more than once, I already know. Do you think she’ll ever recover from what happened to her? How is this going to change her relationship with Tiffany? Hmmm….Perhaps that was plan B (PLN B?).ģ) Poor Miss Level. Tho perhaps unclean Feegle might have shocked the real Tiffany out of her safe place to do something about it. Given the over growth and mess the Hiver is making of her mind, I sure am glad the Feelge bathed first. What did you think of Pratchett’s imagery of her mind, and of her safe place?Įven the first time I read this book, I totally got it that Granny Aching’s place we her safe place. I would probably get strong armed out by the bouncer, that frog who has a large pink balloon tied to his wrist.Ģ) Inside Tiffany’s head might be the strangest place the Feegle have ever been. Such field tests involve tapping them with a geologists hammer, lightly, to get a feel for how hard they hard attempting to scratch their surface licking them and singing in variously (but always annoying) high notes to see if and when they resonate.

So, I would want to walk into ZakZak’s, stroll over the crystals display, and start doing some rudimentary field guesses as to what types of crystals they are. Now, it is rocks, and crystals the showy kind of rocks. I was really into crystals when I was younger. What kind of witchy goodies would YOU buy there? This week covers chapters 6-9 and next week we’ll be covering chapters 10-END.ġ) I got a chuckle out of Tiffany’s visit to ZakZak’s shop, especially the bit about the different styles of witch hats. It has gone by so damn quickly! This week, The Little Red Reviewer is hosting, so make sure to stop by her place and read her whimsical, entertaining, and insightful comments. Welcome back Pratchettites! We’re already 3/4 of the way through A Hat Full Of Sky. Yes, he does sleep there…and occasionally falls off.
