I was given two books for my birthday: "The Eyre Affair" and "Lost in a Good Book". It was particularly interesting reading about a fictionalised Jane Eyre and Mr Rochester in between watching the penultimate and final episodes of the BBC'c latest dramatisation of Jane Eyre.
Hmmm. Having considered that last sentence, perhaps "a fictionalised Jane Eyre" isn't quite the correct definition! An even more fictionalised JE? An unfictionalised JE?
I enjoyed both these books - a nice, relaxing, happy way to spend some time, and they were both good enough to make me have a few late nights when I should have been sleeping. I would like to read the rest of the Thursday Next series, and I recommend Jasper Fforde's website. However, I haven't felt myself trying to persude my husband to read them, or had an urge to discuss them in great detail with them. Unlike Kazuo Ishiguro's books, for example.
