This week, we have @whatallydid from the Dark 'n' Light team recommending a book that helped her crawl out of a reading slump. Here's her battered but very beloved copy of the book.
“During lockdown, I found myself unable to process new information. I had a stack of books next to my bed that perpetually threatened to crush me in my sleep and no motivation to read. I slowly reclaimed my reading habit by returning to familiar friends.
One of the greatest of these is Terry Pratchett. If you haven't read his Discworld books, you're in for a treat. I'm almost jealous that you'll get to read them for the first time.I bought this book a few days before my 12th grade final exams.
