Squirrel Girl is my most favorite Marvel comic (not my most favorite Marvel superhero, though - that's Koi Boi, a Squirrel Girl character who's introduced later, and yes, his superhero name actually is Koi Boi) and I love everything about Unpretty except for her Squirrel Girl shipping opinions which are horrifying (/affectionate).
(Nancy/Doreen 4eva) (to be clear, Unpretty does ship Nancy/Doreen, she just hasn't written any fanfic about it) (sadly)
If you like romance, have you considered the Duke of the Month club? I'm on their email list, not because I actually read any of the books they send me, but because it amuses me beyond all reason to be on something called a Duke of the Month Club.
(Not that I don't read romance - I've read everything Courtney Milan has ever written! But Milan aside, I go more for romcoms than histroms.)
The First Adventure is so much fun! I reread Monstrous Regiment recently (yeah, I got the same Discworld bundle that you did), maybe I should reread the first two Alanna books too. (I've only read the first two :( I saw that the third book was set in Fantasy Middle East As Imagined by a White Person and noped out.)
I don't really have a Discworld reading order, but I think the series really starts with Equal Rites. But, if I'm being honest, I'm really just in it for Tiffany Aching, the Witches, Death, and any Wizards books that haven't got Rincewind in them. (Okay, fine, and Night Watch. And, as previously mentioned, Monstrous Regiment. My desire to abolish the carceal state and the military-industrial complex apparently can't stand up to my nostalgia for Sam Vimes.) I think The Shepherd's Crown is in many ways a really good series finale, although it's less edited than the other books so YMMV if that just makes you too sad.
