From amazon.com:
Fans of Douglas Adams and P. G. Wodehouse will love visiting Jasper Fforde's Great Britain, circa 1985, when time travel is routine, cloning is a reality (dodos are the resurrected pet of choice), and literature is taken very, very seriously: it’s a bibliophile’s dream. England is a virtual police state where an aunt can get lost (literally) in a Wordsworth poem and forging Byronic verse is a punishable offense. All this is business as usual for Thursday Next, renowned Special Operative in literary detection. But when someone begins kidnapping characters from works of literature and plucks Jane Eyre from the pages of Brontë's novel, Thursday is faced with the challenge of her career. Fforde's ingenious fantasy—enhanced by a Web site that re-creates the world of the novel—unites intrigue with English literature in a delightfully witty mix. Thursday’s zany investigations continue with six more bestselling Thursday Next novels, including One of Our Thursdays is Missing and the upcoming The Woman Who Died A Lot. Visit jasperfforde.com.

I just took this same book from the book table. =D I'll read this and take the other one back. And thank you! I just read The Big Over Easy and it was quite good.

I actually finished this already. =) I had only one book with me in the UK and I finished it during the convention so I thought I could read this one next. I liked this more than The Big Over Easy. The characters were more interesting and I can't wait to see what literary characters we might see in the next volume!

Received today. Glad I got this book since I already have some later in the series and now I can read them and get them off Mt. TBR.

Thanks for the RABCK!

I very much enjoyed this book. I like Thursday Next, the twists and turns are interesting. I've already dived into Lost in a Good Book, which has been on my bookshelf for many years.
