50) "I Shall Wear Midnight" - Pratchett

This was one of Pratchett's later books, when the Alzheimer's was getting to him, and it shows. I still love it, of course. Things are a little too pat, and very often things get explained almost exactly the same three pages after they've just been explained, and there's a certain thing one character should have remembered from a previous book and just didn't, no explanation, and I just don't think the Evil Thing works quite right, somehow, but there's Tiffany being dedicated to doing everything she can to help people, and being stubborn and bossy, and I can't help but love it, honestly. Though my sniffles at the end are more about wishing that Pratchett hadn't been losing his mind.
