Well, I've started reading "The Eyre Affair" by Jasper Fforde
(the first Thursday Next novel) and, after a few chapters, I'm
hooked.

I'm REALLY enjoying this alternate universe. Anyone else read
these books and, if so, WHY DID YOU KEEP THEM FROM ME!?!?!?

You must not have been paying attention when we were discussing the
books not that long ago. <g>

That said, I've somehow managed to acquire 2 copies of "The Well of
Lost Plots". If you're interested in one, let me know.

Depends on when that was... Recall, life was... interesting...
for me there for a while. (Those Chinese and their curses...)

>That said, I've somehow managed to acquire 2 copies of "The Well of

The copy I'm reading right now is a library copy. However, if
the read keeps going like it has been, I'll probably end up
getting my own.

So, yeah... I'd like that "The Well of Lost Plots" copy. Just
let me know what I owe you.
