Two books knocked off the half-read pile today. Definitely a productive use of my day off.

Title: Truckers
Author: Terry Pratchett
Number of Pages: 288 pages
Book Number/Goal: 38/75 for 2009
My Rating: 4/5
The story is about a group of nomes (like gnomes, but without a g!) who hitch a ride on a truck and find themselves in a department store, where they meet other nomes who have lived all their lives in the store and believe it to be the whole world. Then the store goes out of business and they all have to find a new home.
I've never read any non-Discworld stuff by Pratchett (other than Good Omens), and was kind of meh on the concept of "nomes", but I ended up really enjoying it.
Title: Diggers
Author: Terry Pratchett
Number of Pages: 224 pages
Book Number/Goal: 39/75 for 2009
My Rating: 3.5/5
After the nomes make their escape from the store, they crash the truck in an abandoned quarry and make their home there. But the quarry isn't abandoned for long, and when the humans start making plans to reopen it, the nomes once more have to find somewhere else to live.
This one felt slower than the first, but I still enjoyed it.
Title: Wings
Author: Terry Pratchett
Number of Pages: 215 pages
Book Number/Goal: 40/75 for 2009
My Rating: 4.5/5
While Grimma and the rest of the nomes are trying to make the best of it in the quarry, Masklin, Angalo, and Gruder head to Florida with the Thing to try and get their spaceship back.
This was definitely the best of the three. Diggers suffers from middle book syndrome for sure. It was kind of slow and laggy. This was much more exciting. None of these were anywhere near as good as the Discworld stuff, but I did enjoy them a lot.
