Funny and full of interesting worldbuilding. I wasn't a huge fan of Mort but Death is wonderful

I don't know if it's my lack luster reading comprehension, my circumstances these past couple weeks, Terry Pratchett writing style, or an unfortunate mix of all of these factors, but I struggled to get through this. I understand why people love it, it's unique and silly and fun, but I guess I just hate joy. I felt as if I had no idea what Terry was talking about half the time. However, it made me laugh at times, and I would sometimes get in the zone and stick to it. I think it's just a simple matter of preference that I won't be looking towards another Pratchett book for a while.

Really enjoyed this book! Third Pratchett book, and despite being a bit underwhelmed by the last two, I really loved the character of death - third time lucky. I now want to complete the full death series.

I think I enjoy Discworld novels more in print than I do in Audiobook form. Something about how Sir Pratchett writes just clicks better for me in print.
