If Jules Verne didn’t have a true interest in the sea he certainly feigned it well. The amount of detail he goes into on all the different types of animal and plant life is incredible. It was oddly a comforting book being slowly taken in adventure after adventure. I think because it was written in the perspective of a professor, the tone was funnily academic in the face of all of their awesome journeys but I liked it. I was also pleasantly surprised by the professor’s change in perspective on the captain. For a lot of the book he idolized him while as the reader I couldn’t shake that he was keeping them captive.

This book was an experiment and I realise I don’t like theses types of books.

I made it 33 years on this Earth without reading this novel, and honestly, I could have lived out the rest of my days without reading it and have been perfectly happy. The story has a few interesting and exciting moments, but they are overwhelmingly outnumbered by boring descriptions of the sea. I'm sure there are marine biologists who would find this interesting, but the rest of us just don't need to read page after page of this stuff. There are so few characters in this story, so there is little human interactions to distract from the scientific mumbo jumbo. Now I see why this was never required reading for me in school.
