aimiller 's review for:

Jingo by Terry Pratchett
4.5
adventurous funny lighthearted reflective medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

5 stars really but minus one half star because Sir Terry made me read Islamophobic slurs like a LOT. 

HOWEVER this book sent me into full feral V/V mode... Vetinari's dog... Terry's morals mean nothing to me any more, no one cares, VIMES IS VETINARI'S DOG 

Truly I cannot write a more coherent review than this. It was a delight, it did everything I wanted, but good GOD Terrance do not make me read slurs!!! Please!!! And then pretend that the "other side" also has slurs!!! They don't!!! Power exists in the real world!!! 

Anyway, more V/V, fewer slurs, more Nobby Nobbs in a dress. These are my demands.
