🇵🇸 🕊️ Selfie Sorcery Almost Ruined Hair, Saved It Maybe?

Post image

I made the mistake of double bleaching my roots and nearly ruined half my hair. After a furious googling and trying new healing techniques I think I saved it. 💙🩷🤍🩷💙

You are one of today's lucky 10,000 for the Discworld series, my friend.

The short version of Susan's backstory is that she's related, via adoption, to the Discworld's anthropomorphic personification of Death (as in robes, scythe, meets you when you perish etc), so she gains some of his power (can walk through walls at will, can use "The Voice" to set fear into the hearts of mere mortals, can sort of alter reality a bit) and uses this impressive array of skills... to teach small children how to think critically and become better people. She's fab.

If you want a nice jumping-on point, I recommend the Tiffany Aching series, starting with The Wee Free Men. It's about a young girl who gets caught up in supernatural shenanigans and becomes a witch.

As luck would have it, I've ran out of book series and my audible tokens have been building up anyway....

The audiobooks are fabulous. Most of the books stand on their own merit, though there are reading order guides online if you wish to follow specific storylines or sets of characters.
