Okay so I got offered a job back in New Hampshire and I have to take it even though I kind of don't want to, not because I don't want the job, but because I don't want to be back in New Hampshire. I'm frustrated because I can't find a place to live. I start in a week and I still don't even have a plane ticket back there, let alone a place to sleep

LOLOL, there are like 40 books in the Discworld series by now. The History Monks show up in one other book, "Night Watch", which is supposed to be one of the really good ones but I haven't gotten to it yet in my chronological re-through. Another good one to try is "Going Postal". It introduces a new character, Moist von Lipwig, who has to try and re-build the postal system in Ankh-Morpork. It is HILARIOUS.

Or- actually, I've just remembered. There are a set of YA books set in Discworld, which run sort of parallel to the main story. There are all really good to, and I think they were the first ones I read. "The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents" is a stand alone, a re-telling of the Pied Piper of Hamelin fairytale. Then there are four about Tiffany Aching, a smart logical young girl training to be a witch. The first one is "The Wee Free Men" (in which Tiffany meets the Discworld version of leprechauns), then "The Hat Full of Sky", "Wintersmith" and "I Shall Wear Midnight". Those are also a good set to read if you want more Pratchett but don't want to wade through all of the main Discworld books.
