Samantha and I have been enjoying some of Jasper Fforde's books. I have been reading the Thursday Next series - The Eyre Affair, Lost In A Good Book, and The Well Of Lost Plots. Lots of imagination and suspension of belief, but fun wordplay and plotting.
Samantha has been reading his Nursery Crime series. First is The Big Over Easy, a murder mystery involving Humpty Dumpty. She finished that right after Christmas and is now into The Fourth Bear. I hear her giggling her way through it.
I plan on The Big Over Easy next.

Planning ahead
Went shopping with Sean today. Various stores. Before leaving I stuffed a paperback into the car. That move paid off dividends as JC Penny's was a bit tedious at times. I got through at least two chapters in the shoe department alone.

The Illusionist
Just watched The Illusionist. Not your average movie about a late 19th century magician that falls in love with royalty. Pretty good fare. Not a total surprise ending tho. Put it on your Netflix queue.
