Happy Sunday 🤍 I have SO much work to do today, but I'm going to read for a little while anyway. This is the last book in the Thursday Next series, so I hope the rumors are true about a new one being published in the next year or so...

I'm totally pro a bedbug rating scale for hotels 😂😂😂
pickI gave this 4*, but it almost tipped the cleverly wacky scale. 🤪
Switching to audio for a bit to give my eyes a rest. Jasper Fforde makes me laugh with his ridiculous cleverness. #readathon #deweyoct #DeweysReadathon
Waiting for a friend to come and help me finally put up my bookshelves! I hope to show you the results soon :)
This was my #apocalitsy survival-kit! Oh it was frightfull!

pickI love all of Jasper Fforde's books. This is part of his Thursday Next series. Begin with The Eyre Affair. If you are familiar with Wuthering Heights, Picture of Dorian Grey, and Jane Eyre, all the better.

pickCertainly for the first, and quite possibly last, time in my life, can I say that the seventh book in a series is the best one. Who does that? Jasper Fforde, that's who.
Finished this series on Thursday. Sat down to eat lunch and read my book on Friday and cried. Thanks Jasper Fforde for a wonderful female character❤️
While watching Olympics: rearranging & dusting bookshelves. I'm on shelf 2 and already questioning my sanity for taking on this project @VikingBooks
so-so"Librarying is a harder profession than the public realizes." Indeed. The seventh book of the Thursday Next series continues the fantastic story. That being said, not my favorite of the bunch with the reoccurring Day Players and the ever obnoxious Aornis Hades playing the Next family to play a shell game using a mindworm.
That being said, still a delightful read!
pickIrreverent and funny. These books are always a good listen (or read) when you're wanting something light
"Do I have to talk to insane people?"
"You're a librarian now. I'm afraid it's mandatory."
This series has some great quotes like "Sorry for the attempted murder. That's not usually how we greet distinguished guests" and "I need to fine tune the made-upian field". I also liked "I've been called that many times before, of course, but rarely by a nun."
Road trip means audiobook. Can't believe I never got around to listening to the last book in the Thursday Next series. I love these. They're like a big inside joke for book lovers.
