Join me on a read through of Discworld! Today we're looking at the tenth book, Moving Pictures, a stand-alone novel.
This book is frequently overlooked, but it's honestly one of my favourites. A satirical, mocking commentary on Hollywood and the film industry, filled with clever references, subversions, and humour.
