Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell
Did anyone read this book about English magic? Its like an adult Harry Potter. It was good, but it was long....took me forever to read, but it was definitely imaginative and interesting. NOt your typical book.

I read it. I didn't find it at all like Harry Potter. The end was great- but the first 500 pages were too much for me.

Re: Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell
DH got it for me for my B-day last year and I read about half the book, then the spring semester started and I had to put it down. I just put it back on my nightstand. I am at the part where Strange has just returned from the war a celebrity.
It took me a long time to get through the first 150 pages...but after that, I really got into it.

The beginning is very slow, but it picks up somewhere in the middle if stick with it.
