I admit a morbid curiosity with this story. I have watched the movie and documentaries and added this to my list. It was a quick read. The recent updates from Liz and Molly really add to the original story.

"Here's to the day when they repeal Porribition." Jasper Fforde's wit never stops.

"...I was in my folding aluminum chaise out in the front yard, getting browner by the second." Well, Sookie, mine isn't aluminum and I'm in the backyard, but I enjoy some reading and sun too!

'Only the bravest crocuses had graced the municipal park, and the daffodils, usually a welcome splash of color after a winter of grayness, had taken one sniff at the cold, damp air and postponed blooming for another year.'

Feels like where we're at now. Spring is coming! In the meanwhile, snuggled in with one of my favorites, Jasper Fforde, coffee, and a doggie. 💜

Ice storm has the world outside coated and the hubby is at work...so it's just me, coffee, a book, and (barely visible) a hound curled up in her recliner. 💜
