1-20-10 Something Rotten by Jasper Fforde – Fiction

4 – I do love the Thursday Next books. They are perfect for literary lovers like myself. Thursday has to deal with the Minotaur Norman Johnson, Kaine (a fictional character out in the real world who’s bent on world domination), the uneradication of her husband, getting Swindon to win the Superhoop, and a two-year-old Friday. And, just for fun, Fforde also threw in a resurrected saint and a very confused Hamlet. As usual, this book is a terribly fun romp through Fforde’s alternate reality where dodos can be genetically reborn in your kitchen and characters in books actually do come alive.
