Today's the day!

What have you been reading? Do you recommend it?

If you have a lot to say, especially with comparisons to the Thief books, you can post yourself. If not, we'll be at play in the comments here!

And I'll be going first...

Another Archival Note from the Fine Sheets in the Library

On...Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell! No Surprise!

Mr has no period after it in that book, by the way. Which I thought was interesting. It must be historically accurate, I believe it, I just never noticed it elsewhere.

Now here's the reason I'm posting about this book after a whole week of effusions in commentland. There really are a lot of draws that I think are pertinent to the ThiefLovers. I may cross-post this to my Xanga, where I have a blogring entitled Eugenides Lovers Conspicuous. Since I might be spoilery (I'll warn you, of course, in the text) and definitely long-winded I award you a cut.
