2021 book 161

 Terry Pratchett’s Night Watch

This was…weirdly devastating? Things start off with Sam's wife in labor, but he’s on the hunt for a serial killer—but then a magical storm sucks them back in time, to thirty years earlier, as the city is on the brink of a revolution—and young Sam is just starting his job on the Watch. Now our Sam has to mentor his younger self, keep history on track, and keep everyone safe. We also get some glimpses into the past of various other characters, which is interesting. But this was kind of a gut punch by Discworld standards! ILU Sam. A.
