The Eyre Affair, by Jasper Fforde
2012 Book 26:The Eyre Affair, by Jasper Fforde (2/12/2012)
Reason for Reading: 12 in 12 Fforde February
My Review: 5/5 stars
SpecOps officer Thursday Next is swept away into a dangerous mystery when Jane Eyre is kidnapped. She has to literally jump into the story in order to rescue Miss Eyre. This book has hilarious British humor and word play. Its alternative universe setting is creative and fun. And I love books with so many references to literature. This book is awesome, and I can’t wait to start the second in the series. I hear they only get better.
