A review by alannabarras
Nation by Terry Pratchett
5.0
I did not want to read this book. I've checked it out from the library and returned it unopened several times, because while it is Terry Pratchett is is not a Discworld novel, and I had some vague idea that meant it wouldn't be as good. But then I read a collection of essays by Pratchett, and he mentioned Nation as the best book he's ever written, and talked about how much he loved it. I immediately tracked it down again, and I'm so glad I did.
This book isn't just angry. This book takes a look at all of the injustices in the world and rages at them. I wish I'd read this as an angry 13 year old just hitting adulthood. I wish I'd read this as an angry 19 year old just starting to discover the real world. I will be finding a physical copy of this book to add to my shelves, because I will probably add this to my rotation of annual reads.
