Book Reccomendation

[kaitou]

For anyone who hasn't read The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde, I highly suggest you do so. The Wall Street Journal said it "combines elements of Monty Python, Harry Potter, Stephen Hawking, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer." And yes, it does. ANY book which involves a 'Rocky Horror Picture' style production of Richard the Third is ok in my eyes. (Audience: "When is the winter of our discontent?" Richard: Now is the winter of our discontent.")

It's like Read or Die only even more bizzare and delightful.

Lost in a Good Book, the second one in the series, is even better, if more serious.

Not sure yet when the third one hits bookshelves though.

"combines elements of Monty Python, Harry Potter, Stephen Hawking, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer."

Good Lord. I might have to make time for that.

That is a good book. I've been promising Twig to send her my copy for years and I keep forgetting.

Hey Anne, have you read any of the Artemis Fowl books? I haven't, but I'm thinking about it and your opinion would be invaluable.
