His voice is just so refreshing!<br /><br />Jux - Definitely try The Eyre Affair. It makes me laugh out loud every time I read it ... it has to with a character named Jack Schitt in it! And yes, he takes the most mundane locations and spices them up while fully letting you know that if it wasn't for the strange things happening there that he is writing about, you would never want to go to these places!<br /><br />Jenners - It definitely takes attention but it pays off by being something incredibly fun and different.Kristen M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02335598194501733541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-754919688510890076.post-37784599123402441072009-07-10T18:41:25.565-07:002009-07-10T18:41:25.565-07:00This sounds very creative ... though I think I wou...This sounds very creative ... though I think I would really have to pay attention to follow along!!!Jennershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08044537551139633301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-754919688510890076.post-39585500751585831032009-07-08T05:30:21.875-07:002009-07-08T05:30:21.875-07:00I have never read any Jasper Fforde and will have ...I have never read any Jasper Fforde and will have to try one sometime. As to his setting of Reading - frankly it would need something major to make it remotely interesting!

I'm going to have to start this series to hold me over until another book comes out! According to his website, the next Thursday Next book will be published in August 2010 and he's starting a new series in January 2010 (!).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
