Book Review of The Eyre Affair (Thursday Next, Bk 1)

The Eyre Affair (Thursday Next, Bk 1)
bluewater avatar reviewed on


Completely enjoyable read for those of us who like original worlds. I love fantasy and science fiction and odd places that creative minds think up and make real and Jasper Fforde fits the bill entirely. The heroine is interesting with her military service and fits our time with so many young veterans with awful experiences in Iraq and Afghanistan and her love is also a vet and an amputee. Just kinda cool to bring characters in with that background but not make it the sum of their existence by any degree. The book is fun to read, the world a little confusing at times but still easy to get into.
