A book for book lovers. Dreamy, but not wholly original or relatable. “The Ten Thousand Doors of January” is gorgeously written, but the characters and story lack depth. The audiobook narrator, amazingly also named “January”, gave an incredible performance. There were some plot points and aspects I disliked. The portrayal of the 19th and 20th centuries and the characters felt unrealistic. Overall, a solid four star rating.
