I hope everyone is enjoying Good Omens! How far through are you all? I finished a few days ago and I can't wait for this discussion to start POPPIN'. SO, new question, which you can answer even if you haven't finished yet:
What are some of your favourite quotes from the book? Quote:

I really love the characters in this book, even though I don't feel like they spend a ton of time on them. I think it's more about how they fit into the overall structure that makes it work so well.
Ah, yes! I reckon a second (and third, fourth, fifth) read would be good for me, too. I often skim read to get to dialogue. *HIDES* I'm trying to do it less. It makes me end up reading slowly because I end up trying to go back and read the descriptions more slowly.
I completely agree! I loved so many of the characters, which is always good when reading multiple POV books.

The banter is amazing, right??
POVs is definitely something we can all discuss because I think it deeply impacts how well the book reads. Sometimes I liked it, sometimes it wasn't as great. I think it depends on the characters.
I hope your exam goes (or has gone) well! I'll pop in to discuss no matter when you finish.
