A very important concept of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld is L-shape, short for Library space. Written words have power on the discworld, and to some extent on roundworld (aka: our world), too.
The library in Birmingham is an almost magical building, at least from the outside (I have, unfortunately, never been inside). I think L-space would fit in very nicely. Hint: It’s bigger on the inside, I’m told.
In case, you have missed it: My favourite author is Terry Pratchett, preferably with a splash of Neil Gaiman. Terry Pratchett was NOT a fan of Dr Who but there is this one connection.

I’ve never got around to reading any Terry Pratchett. You’d obviously say I am missing out?

You are missing out. 😊 He created a whole universe that references all manner of things in roundworld (our world) and that is so brimful with humour that I cannot read it even a second or third time without at least grinning (if not laughing out loud). PS: Hint: Do not start with The Colour of Magic. Although a good book Pratchett was still trying out this world. Depending on your taste (witches, religion, politics, vampires, dragons, DEATH, police and/or crime novels) – there are 41 to chose from.

This may not be for me. I tend not to read books featuring witches, vampires & dragons.

They are wonderful satirical images of people you might meet. But not everything is for everyone. 😊

My favourite libraries are the ones attached to old university buildings, there is something very special about these libraries.
Like Margaret, I never read any Terry Pritchett either.
Thank you for taking part in the challenge. 🙂
