PPS, Dr Sex sounds much more scandalous than it is. Its actually Dr Sextus and I dont think he's ever called Dr Sex in the mainstream books iirc. But Muir is the Mother of Memes so I won't say it's beneath her to call him that.

Holy shit. I just looked up what you're talking about. I didnt even read those. Those are some random side stories. Start with Gideon The Ninth. Excuse me while I read Doctor Sex now :D

I'm sorry maybe you found the wrong series. I'm talking about series with the books-Gideon The Ninth, Harrow The Ninth and Nona The Ninth. Its written by Tamsyn Muir

I recommend Locked Tomb series. It has both of youre asking for. Also, such badass protagnist and overall great writing.

For the second bit, I recommend HardCover.

I loved this book when I read it years ago. I really loved the shifting perspectives and obviously the setting and mood

Why did you leave storygraph? I just got on it because I wanted an online log of some sort. I dont mind it so far. Although I literally just joined 3 weeks ago

I love Vimes so much already!! Im listening to the audiobook of the witch series while gardening and love it too :)

I prefer reading to listening. But gotta make do when I can't use my hands to read

Based on some random reddit thread. Its a good book to start i think. Just go for it

Terry Pratchett's Guards! Guards!. This is my first Pratchett book and I'm kicking myself for not picking these up sooner, like decades sooner. Like my life would have been different sooner :)

Its not the same comparison tho. Tech is a far more lucrative career than coal mining/primary ed. Inequity in tech affects a lot more than inequity in those other fields.
