Book Reviews of Something Rotten (Thursday Next Novels)
Book Review: I Can't Handle It
Summary: 1 Stars
It was only after I had engaged that author that I realized this was the fourth in a loosly connected series. I am not sure, however, that reading the priors were necessary. I just could not get into the text. It took so much work to sort out what was happening, I gave up. Some called the book funny, I called it redicuous. It's not my genre and maybe my mood was too serious, but it seemed a confusing waste of time to me.
Summary of Something Rotten (Thursday Next Novels)
The popularity of Jasper Fforde's one-of-a-kind series builds with each new book. Now in the fourth installment, the resourceful literary detective Thursday Next returns to Swindon from the BookWorld accompanied by her son Friday and none other than the dithering Hamlet. But returning to SpecOps is no snap-as outlaw fictioner Yorrick Kaine plots for absolute power, the return of Swindon's patron saint foretells doom, and, if that isn't bad enough, The Merry Wives of Windsor is becoming entangled with Hamlet. Can Thursday find a Shakespeare clone to stop this hostile takeover? Can she vanquish Kaine and prevent the world from plunging into war? And will she ever find reliable child care? Find out in this totally original, action-packed romp, sure to be another escapist thrill for Jasper Fforde's legions of fans.Contemporary Books
