The Well of Lost Plots Audiobook

" This is a fun one....silly & smart....literary candy for the overread. All the allusions, inside literary jokes, and slaps at literary theory are quite amusing. Read the first two installments first, though. Gotta support the Welsh authors. "

" It's interesting how many people didn't like this as much as the first two; I liked it a bit better than the second and just as much as the first. All the BookWorld gimmicks and such were great fun. "

" I absolutely loved the adventure and plot twists in this book about books. I can't wait to see what happens in book 4. Whooohooo! "

" Another great Gumby book for adults (see review of the Eyre Affair). Good fun romping about in the history of literature. Add a little fun poke at Microsoft, and it's a great way to spend a few hours. "

" Fun literary references. Very imaginative. "

" You really can't guess where the twist and turns are going - not even when they're going to show up. I'd place this book one notch below "Lost in a Good Book." It was different seeing Tuesday Next living in the book world and very creative, however it also was not as interesting. "

" Book 3 in the series happens almont entirely in the BookWorld. Cleverly plotted, funny and touching, a great read. "

" While there is a ton of clever and cool stuff in here, it is miles too long and would have been awesome at half the length. Thursday disappears into the book world, her husband is still erased from the real world, and she has to deal not just with a rampaging Minotaur, but tons of other plots as well. Must be read to get to book four. "

" Still loving Thursday Next, and appreciate that Jasper Fforde isn't afraid to play with convention. Lots more emotion in this installment which was just fine. "

" This series is quickly becoming one of my favourites. I keep telling everyone I talk to to read the books! "

" Lots of fun, indeed. "

" I think I'd have liked this book better if I'd read it in two or three sittings. Light fiction spread out over several months, no matter how charming, doesn't wear as well. I think I just need a break from BookWorld for a bit. "

" Fforde delivers! "

" Another Thursday Next novel, and just as good and surreal as the others. "

" Another excellent book by Fforde. I love these stories where books are alive and the plot is laced with references to the classics I love. The series does need to be read in order...the first one is The Eyre Affair. "

" Listening to this as audiobook during the washing of the dishes and in the early morning hours when I can't get back to sleep ;-)) "

" I love Thursday Next--her experiences and travails and trials continually keep me reading. "

" A little slower than the previous two, but more clever than the previous ones. Can't wait to see what is in store for Thursday . . . . "

" I enjoyed the book, but had a hard time concentrating on it. "

" Thursday Next is taking a vacation in an unpublished manuscript, when she learns someone is scrapping them. It's just weird and fun, and hard to explain. "

" Well, after the first two this was a huge disappointment. I won't give up on this series or author yet but I hope the next one is more like the first two. Basing the entire story in the book world did not work well! "

" If you thought you knew something about how the world of fiction works, you haven't seen anything yet! In the third Thursday Next novel, The Well of Lost Plots, Fforde is anything but formulaic. "
