A review by shebephoebe
Night Watch by Terry Pratchett

5.0

 Vimes stared at the thing in his hands. It was a cigar case, slim and slightly curved.
He fumbled it open and read: To Sam with love from your Sybil.
The world moved. Vimes still felt like a drifting ship. But at the end of the tether there was now the tug of the anchor, pulling the ship around so that it faced the current.

Not me struggling not to cry while reading this through the quiet holiday hours at work. Couldn’t be me.

Easily and immediately one of my favorite Discworld books.
