This was a reread of the first four books in the series: The Eyre Affair, Lost in a Good Book, The Well of Lost Plots, and Something Rotten. I had to read these again to prepare to read the fifth book in the series. I'm glad I did because they are so creative and imaginative. I forgot how much they are just out there. Sort of Science Fiction, with a little bit of drama and romance, and a ton of literary allusions. I would love to have a list of all the books referenced in this series, and then use that as a guide to what to read next. My favorites of the four books are The Eyre Affair because frankly Thursday enters the book Jane Eyre--just awesome!! And I loved the twist at the end of Something Rotten, so that one is one of my top too. I really just have to say that if you love to read and have read a lot of classics and modern literature that you would love this series. You get to meet so many characters from books that you've read and loved. Highly recommend this series!
