Maybe they disowned me because I loved Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell
Off topic: Ugh, while I generally like SFF, I really didn't like that book. Soooo long, I didn't really like most of the characters who the text focused on, and the footnotes were just annoying. I kept on reading them, hoping that they'd be interesting, or funny, or... worth it. I don't remember them being any of the above. I think I finally skimmed the last 300 pages or something just so I could see if there was an ending. But I probably wouldn't disown someone for lliking that book; I probably just wouldn't trust their suggestions for other books. :-)
