Second in the Nursery Crime series. Inspector Jack Spratt is back, but after a case of a wolf disguised as a grandmother resulted in several people being eaten alive he's been sidelined from the Nursery Crime Division, so when the psychopathic Gingerbreadman escapes the institution where he's been locked up for 20 years, the investigation is given to another officer. In the mean time a woman known as Goldilocks is missing and it seems as though bears are somehow involved. Although Jack is supposed to be on sick leave, he and sidekick Mary Mary are determined to find her. Also contains the obsessive growing of giant cucumbers and a theme park based on the Somme. Brilliantly funny.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:
Sent to Ron Oren who is first in the ray. Enjoy the book! :)
Got it, thanks. Perfect timing, too: I just finished another ring so can get started on this one right away :-)
I really enjoyed this book. Easy romp through the strange world of Jasper Fforde's Reading, but with a bit more fleshing out of characters than the first instalment had. I especially liked the descriptions of tangential PDRs (which in itself is a beautiful PC-term, isn't it): Punch & Judy were the absolute best! Who would've thought of an habitually fighting couple making money out of the disturbance they create in the neighbourhood...?
Thanks ever so much for sharing this read, greenbadger! This cheered up my days no end :-). I will send it on to rodespringbal in a couple of days.

Thank you for the book and all the other birthday goodies. I appreciate everything. You are a star!!
I loved it. This was so much fun. I liked it even better than the first book. I will now be seeking out the third book.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. This is part of Holiday Gift Giving 2020. Enjoy this fun book.
Oh! I received this book yesterday as a Holiday Gift Giving 2020 gift and am thrilled about it! Huge thanks to mscar who sent it to me. Looking forward to reading it after finishing the pile of current books on my nightstand ;) Happy New Year 2021 to y'all!
Taking on this book as the next in the "Mount TBR 2022 challenge" in the Finnish forum. Have promised to read 6 old books from my shelf and this is the 6th book. I also have some library books on my nightstand so let us see how long it takes me to dig into these new adventures ;)
EDIT 7 July 2022
Settling some confusion and documenting it here to remember it later. This book is part of this ray: https://www.bookcrossing.com/journal/7242090? and I was listed as the final recipient - but, this here is the BCID that is on the book. The Lost Book ended in 2009. Most of the bookcrossers in the ray that I think could be waiting for the book are no longer active. Will contact a bookcrosser in Finland who has this book on her wish list and a bookcrosser in the NZ who appears to be an active one if they are interested in the book.

Have been in touch with both bookcrossers who'd be interested in this book. I'll read this next and then send it out. I might hold on to this a little longer as the next reader has two books on my TBR pile that are on their wish list. So, I'll read both books and send them off! Awesome! But as we all know, two books out means four books added to TBR. The joy of bookcrossing <3

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:
After starting and leaving this book forever on the TBR pile, I decided to put it forward to a fellow bookcrosser who wishes for it. I hope this makes your day; it made my day when I realised I could send you this book with another of your wishlist books! Hooray!
Happy reading and love and light to your November!
