I didn't exactly not like this book, but it was not at all what I expected. It took until about page 260 for me to be interested. And only another 40 pages before I was bored again. I was very intrigued by the premise, and have had this on my shelf for years. I'm kinda sad that it didn't live up to what I thought it should have. This is probably in part due to the fact that I hated Jane Eyre, so maybe if another book had been chosen to start the series, I would have continued on. But alas, this was not the case, and I won't be continuing. Though I will give kudos for the character names: Thursday Next, Jack Schitt, Paige Turner, Analogy and Hades!
