Reread Good Omens. Keep reading it until you can open the book to any random page and continue reading without missing a beat. Let the text flow through you like water until it becomes a part of who you are. Then pick up Discworld.

I thought the good omens show was really good. I haven't read the book.

The show did really well to adapt the book, but like is often the case, there's a few changes and cuts for a better narrative flow for the medium.

I'd give the show a solid 8/10, with the book being a full 10/10, perfect balance of comedy with drama, and you can really feel Gaiman and Pratchett coming together to tell a story with both unique voices carrying through.
