Thursday Next in First Among Sequels by Jasper Fforde (2007)

This is a book I almost gave up on, as the alternate universe was so complex and the literary references seemed too much, but out of inertia I kept putting new CD's in the player, and it grew on me. It was a pretty neat concept, that there is a whole world of characters behind the scenes waiting to be read in books. A lot of issues that are a part of my daily life in the library were brought up, like the decrease in people reading, especially young people.
