Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.

Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.

Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.

I first came across the book in 2017, bought it and was immediately hooked by the story.

Years passed, and when they announced the casts for the series, I was skeptical (I'm not a big movie/TV person) as I knew nothing about Michael Sheen and David Tennant.

Decided to give it a try, and boy, it's so good. Everyone is so perfectly casted.

Actually reading the book right now for the first time! I'm about halfway through and really enjoying it so far.
I did watch the show when it first aired so I'm struggling not to picture Tennant and Sheen in the main parts but i think they did a pretty good job so I'm not too worried.
It's my first Gaiman book but umpteenth Pratchett. I think a second TV series without TP will work better than a second book would've done.
