Given that Jasper Fforde's sixth installment of the Thursday Next series - One of Our Thursdays is Missing - has just been released in the UK (and will be available in the US on March 8th), The Tamarind has a recap of previous books, with special attention to the one that started it all: The Eyre Affair. If you haven't read the series, beware of spoilers in that article. And do yourself a favour and start reading the books.

A couple of students are featured in their local press. The Marin Independent Journal's student of the week:
Nominator Linda Kislingbury's comments: "Stephen has embraced drama and music since his freshman year. He has continued to improve and become one of our finest character actors. He has big parts in both the fall musical and play. As a senior honors drama student, Stephen will help student-direct our spring play, 'Jane Eyre.'"
And the Beauregard Daily News focuses on a local high school senior whose favourite book is Jane Eyre.

On the blogosphere, The Brontë Sisters has uploaded several pictures of old Haworth. Cousins Read and The House of the Seven Tails both post about Villette as part of the Unputdownables Read-along. Kate's Library and Walking on Sunshine write about Jane Eyre (and the latter is not very enthusiastic about it). Anima Libri discusses Wuthering Heights in German while Flickr user Red Heart Studio has uploaded a Wuthering Heights-inspired collage. Finally, Thoughts from sonie has written a poem on seeing Charlotte Brontë's Roe Head Journal at the Morgan Library.
