The Fforde-a-Thon Begins

Well, I've turned the last page on my current read so it's time to walk over to my shelves and pull down Jasper Fforde's The Eyre Affair! I would guess that it's my fourth or fifth time reading the novel but it will be my first time with this copy of the book. A year or so ago, I found a pristine used hardcover copy and, as this was the only one in the series that I had in paperback, I upgraded.

So, if you wanted to join me in this first of six adventures with the amazing Thursday Next, grab your copy today! I'll be tweeting a bit about the book over the next couple of days (@webereading, if you don't follow me yet) and will be back with a post when I'm done. By the way, I'm not doing this in any sort of speedy, twenty-four hours of reading type deal, just a regular pace, so don't feel like you can't join in a day late!

Plock, plock,

  1. I do adore his writing . . . and by extension, him, a bit. :)

  2. I read The Eyre Affair a few weeks ago and it was so much fun! I hope to read more of the series soon.

  3. Buffy - I know what you mean! I have no idea what kind of person he is but he's awesome regardless. :)

    Alyce - It's a really unique series and if you liked the first one, you will definitely like the rest!
