Read Piranesi in a day. Usually just read 5 pages of a book at night (and not every night) as I fight against sleep. I couldn’t put it down. I didn’t want the second half of the story to win, but it did…I wanted the world of the house to be the prevailing place…but it wasn’t. I wish I had had these thoughts. #Piranesi #SusannaClarke

I was a Tolkien fan since the 1970s, and I still love LOTR, but Susanna Clarke's "Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell" is my favorite fantasy novel. Something may come along to bump it off, but not yet. #Fantasy #JonathanStrange #SusannaClarke

Got stuck #reading the #book "Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell
" ( #SusannaClarke it is not you, it is absolutely just me, everyone loves this book) and did something I never did before- went to #watch it on #TV .
Well, I can't seem to #enjoy it there either, I was hoping watching it would push me back to the #print version but right now i'm only getting the go to #sleep version.
Not all #books are for all #girls

@dolphinately I love #SusannaClarke but the others are new to me. Thanks for sharing!
@ablueboxfullofbooks I particularly love the very whimsical #SusannaClarke short story collection ‘The Ladies of Grace Adieu’. Thanks for the other recommendations- I can never have too many!
@autisticbookclub @KennyCoble @YourSecondDraft @arensb @bookstodon I've loved it so much I've read it twice 😄 that world has stayed with me a looong time! #SusannaClarke
"Writing became torturous – all the projects I’ve tried to work on while I was ill kept flowing down a lot of alleys, that was part of the illness – I think it may be a feature with chronic fatigue that you become incapable of making decisions. I found it impossible to decide between one version of a sentence and another version, but also between having the plot go in this direction and having it go in that direction. Everything became like uncontained bushes, shooting out in all directions. That’s the state that the sequel to Jonathan Strange is in. It’s almost like a forest now.”
Wisdom about #writing and #ChronicIllness and #ImposterSyndrome from the incomparable Susanna Clarke.
(I've read Piranesi and was completely enthralled but have not yet read her first book — no spoilers please!)
