I shall wear midnight
-- read the first Tiffany last summer, not a good time to read Pratchett or, last summer being as it was, anybody. After the remaining three, I think they may be among the best of his books. For supposed YA there's a gravity to them that balances the usual lightness of his books. No, I know he's not a light writer, but somehow... the witches needed Tiffany's POV to look most like themselves, is what I'm saying. I found them perfectly balanced which is hard to do in the voice and genre Pratchett writes in.
Broken Kingdoms

Eight Skilled Gentlemen
-- have started Making Money to neutralize Hughart's impression before trying Bridge of Birds again.
