Short shameful confession: I haven't read Night Watch yet
I don't find this shameful -- well, okay, not to me <g>. I will frequently try to "hold" one Pratchett novel in abeyance as a Just In Case. Because he's one of the very, very few I authors whose works I can read in any state of mind, most particularly the bleak and unhappy one that requires a bit of elevation.
Otoh, I can't actually hold off on the Watch books with that in mind; in the need-to-read vs. the rainy day in the case of Vimes & co., the reading wins.
