A review by chuxsox
The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde

3.0

Although the story is ultimately enjoyable, the author seems to be using it to make sure the reader must either read, hear, if he is listening to it, or say, if he is reading it out loud, the word, "shit," as many times as possible. There's even a character named Jack Shit. It was funny at first, but then it just started to become tedious. It helps to have a working knowledge of the novel, Jane Eyre, by Charlotte Bronte, before starting this one, but even if one avoids Bronte and Austin like the plague, this story is still interesting.
