Comment on Being poor is expensive
Madzielle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks agoI bought my son three Terry Prachett books two Christmas’ ago, including Men at Arms, because I hear so much about them on here.
He hasnt read them yet and it makes me sad.

Maybe one of the things he comes back in x years going, I loved those books! (After not reading for years) Mean one can hope but you least tried give a good gift. All things I’ve heard is he’s an amusing author though don’t know much beyond what I’ve seen comments on, oh plus Good Omens but only saw season 1 which was based on some of his work, listened to the audiobook too that was a good one. But I enjoy the premise of angels and such.

So he’s been in a bit of trouble this week. I was having him do a couple chores each day before he can earn his CD player for the day. Yesterday, I decided he could earn the CD player by reading Men at Arms for 20 mins instead lol. He did it! His gripe, seems silly, but he said he hasnt read them because there arnt marked chapters, so he doesnt know when to stop! The solution was to use a timer to know when to stop ;)
