The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde

96. The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde

The Eyre Affair is the first book of the Thrusday Next Series. Set in a world where Literature is regarded as one of the most important facets of life adn time travel is possible, you enter a world where there's a thin line between reality and the written word. Complete with pet dodos and book worms, the reader is in for a real treat. You would never look at a library the same way again.

Enough about sounding like a salesperson, hehe I must say I really liked this series. I like to say that I do appreciate books so reading this one gives you a fresh new outlook. The characters are witty and I like the lead Thursday. I must admit though that the love story was a little awkward but the plot in itself was really good. The narrative gets more entertaining as you read . And you woudl not regret continuing to the next novel.
