Summer Bk 2: You don't know Jack Schitt!!

Really, you don't...that is unless you've read Jasper Fforde's "The Eyre Affair."  This book was recommended to me by a friend and then by a classmate in a reader's advisory class during winter quarter after both heard I enjoy the original Jane Eyre.  I was not disappointed in this story as the main character, Thursday Next, deals with a mastermind who wants to change beloved books and a father who randomly appears out of thin air.  And yes...one of the characters is named Jack Schitt and several more have equally interesting names.  If you're in the mood for an alternate universe with some very interesting history changes read "The Eyre Affair."  Oh and I (heart) Mr. Rochester!
