God, I loved Jonathan Strange. My literary friend at work (a low-paid ward clerk who used to be a professional balloonist) gave me the book. Usually I can't get into fiction at all.

In a time of hyperbole, I can honestly say, it's the best!! I used to read it every Summer after it came out and somehow managed to be reading about the Peninsular War and hot marches across the continent when it was about a zillion degrees here. (A professional balloonist :D)
