So I've just started reading Susanna Clarke's Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell because I keep seeing gifs of the
BBC miniseries across my tumblr dash, and while I'm not exactly spoiler-averse I do like to keep *some* surprises/want to read before watching...
The thing is a goddamned brick. I can't take it anywhere, and it's too fat to comfortably hold in my hands, so I read it lying flat on sofa or bed or floor and curse the fact I got it before ereaders were really a thing. (Yes, this has been sitting on my To Read pile shelf bookcase for almost a decade. Hush!)
But, uh. Still reading, despite its unwieldy mortal form. That's gotta say something for the prose, yes?
