The Shepherd's Crown by Terry Pratchett
5.0

Of all the Discworld books that I have read, I have had a special fondness for the Tiffany Aching books. This book was a wonderful way to say goodbye to new books in the series as we get to see Tiffany come into her own as Witch.

There were wonderful understory lessons throughout the book... the idea of roles people play - be it perceived gender roles, perceived societal roles, or other roles we are expected to play in our lives.

I cannot say what moved me about this book to like it so much. Perhaps it was knowing that this is the last book Sir Terry wrote. Perhaps it just came to me at the right moment. Regardless, this was an enjoyable book.

Though, unlike other Discworld books, you really do need to have read at least the first 4 Tiffany Aching books to get the full story.
