Lost in a Good Book: A Thursday Next Novel
by Jasper Fforde
I purchased this book when I was still living in Seattle. I tried to read it once before but couldn't get into it. I picked it up last week and instantly got sucked in. I read his first book a few years ago and love this one as well. He is such a great writer! Reading this book reminds me of what good writing is. The characters are very well developed and the dialog is engaging.
**Update**
I finished this morning on my way to work. They even have a chapter or two of the next book as a sneak peak. This was probably one of the best book I've read this year. I love that time is circular and her father is able to jump from past to future and even sideways which they imply is where our world is. I love the way he plays with words and creates a world in which reading and literacy rules.
