Jasper Fforde creates a BookWorld that feels real... Jurisfiction (like Jurisdiction) monitors infractions within books. While employed as an agent, Thursday Next makes the unpublished book that she lives in more interesting, solves some murders, and uncovers a plot to make books boring.
Miss Havisham, along with characters from Sense & Sensibility, Wuthering Heights, Alice in Wonderland, and a few of Shakespeare's plays all make appearances. My favorite chapters featured a Wuthering Heights counselling session and the BookWorld Awards that had categories such as the Dopiest Shakespearean Lead and Best Dead Person in Fiction Award. I also loved the concept of "generics" going to school in order to gain personalities for roles in new books.
