Review title: Frivolous and fun.
Product review: The Thursday Next books strange but delightful confections of mystery, science fiction, and very-British comedy, with a dash of romance (or of chances missed) thrown in. Scattered throughout are literary references that some readers will revel in, and some will simply miss. It doesn't matter which group you fall into, the books are a treat in any case. Being such an indulgence, they are not to be consumed all at once, as they will become cloying. But reading one now and then lifts the spirits.Which is all a nice way of saying that there is a great similarity among the books, so spread your reading of them over a long period.The Eyre Affair is classic Fford. You don't have to be a Bronte fan to be entertained, or to follow the plot, but if you happen to have a soft spot for Jane Eyre, you'll get a real kick out of it. I loved it. It gets four stars instead of five simply because the writing is at times uneven.
