I really love the concept- with it having been written and published in chapters I can see how it would have been very impressive

It is a really good story, but unfortunately I preferred the excitement of the story in the bbc adaption from 2022 with David Tennant- quite a different story

But when I don’t compare the two it is a very impressive and exciting story :) and I really love the twist at the end

with the eastward/ westward concept- “a day unconsciously gained”

I wish I had read it before watching the bbc adaptation…

The gas thing with Passepartout is so funny to me- I love that little detail
