Kind of a hard question to word, but is there anything in your life you have recommended to other people but no one’s ever gotten into?

I love podcasts and have friends who still thank me for getting them into this one or that one. But I’ve never gotten anyone to listen to My Brother, My Brother and Me. I don’t know if the name is unappealing or the concept but people seem to bounce off immediately.

So what can’t you get people into and why should we check it out?

    I read the Colour of Magic (Book 1) and started the second one, but I wasn’t very hooked by it? I mean it was funny, but maybe I just didn’t like all the fourth wall breaks.

      You can watch the 2 colour of magic movies instead.

      They are pretty good and feature Sir Terry Pratchett himself.

      I’m currently reading the Color of Magic right now and it is…painful. I know, I was warned, but I ignored the pleas. Now I’m kind of stuck reading this book that feels like it was written by a snarky 8th grader on a bus ride home after school. I truly hope the books get better.

        What sort of warnings did you get? All I ever got were recommendations about random Discworld books that weren’t the first ones.
