I've 'read' this, but am some way from solving it.
It is a lot of fun discovering links, finding and deciphering references and quotes, and trying to find themes to unlock the characters at play.
Will keep jumping back to this as and when my obsession kicks in.

Would have given it 5 stars but there is no way to check your solution now that the submissions are closed. Very unhappy to hear that the publisher is planning to release an annotated solution manual considering most of the fun was that the solution couldn’t be accessed until you’ve solved it.

Hey, I technically read all the pages but did I read the book??? Absolutely not. I wish my brain worked in a way that I could even attempt to puzzle through but alas, no.

I really liked this book. We managed to finish the book and submit our answers before midnight, which is very exciting (still waiting for the response tho). I read it in Polish, but tbh you still had to know English to unravel the mystery, so that is my only problem with it. I have to admit, I learned a lot about the UK and had fun with my friends!
