The Eyre Affair – 2.5 Stars:

The book starts off well—original setup, quirky characters, and everything seems to be heading in the right direction. But then it just becomes exhausting. It stretches the concept so much that you want to say, “Enough already, we got it.”

I can see how this might be fun for a certain type of patient reader who enjoys meta-literary play, but for me, this is the first and last book about Thursday Next.
