Journal Entry 1 by Fantasma from Carnaxide, Lisboa (distrito) Portugal on Friday, November 18, 2005
"Thursday Next, literary detective and newlywed is back to embark on an adventure that begins, quite literally on her own doorstep. It seems that Landen, her husband of four weeks, actually drowned in an accident when he was two years old. Someone, somewhere, sometime, is responsible. The sinister Goliath Corporation wants its operative Jack Schitt out of the poem in which Thursday trapped him, and it will do almost anything to achieve this - but bribing the ChronoGuard? Is that possible? Having barely caught her breath after The Eyre Affair, Thursday must battle corrupt politicians, try to save the world from extinction, and help the Neanderthals to species self-determination. Mastadon migrations, journeys into Just William, a chance meeting with the Flopsy Bunnies, and violent life-and-death struggles in the summer sales are all part of a greater plan. But whose? and why?"

The 2nd of the Thursday Next series, this book belongs to the box set.

Journal Entry 2 by Fantasma from Carnaxide, Lisboa (distrito) Portugal on Thursday, December 7, 2006
Fforde's amazing imagination is unstopabble. In the follow up to 'The Eyre Affair', we continue to journey with Thursday Next through her funny and strange world, through many books, and learn more about the characters.
It's a pity Landen got erradicated because I'd like to know more about him and specially about their relationship but there's more books to read.
Loved the new adventures, Miss Havisham and the Cheshire Cat, and the new possibilites within Thursday world.

This kind of books can't be read in all situations. You have to have a clear mind, time and attention to give them or most of the plot and funny stuff will be lost (in a good book! ahahaha, I made a joke, see the title of the book?? :op hummm, forget it, this is just a journal entry of MY book.....)

Also, I believe I'll never eat strawberry ice cream topping the same way... :op
