Why has no one ever told me that how fucking racist Jules Verne was? But ngl, if you are able to look over that stuff, which is really quite frustrating at times, it's quite a page turner. The simple plot is filled with tons of little twists and turns, which constantly kept me on my toes. The characters are all quite funny and delightful. Loved the vivid descriptions of the lands that Fogg visited, ignoring all the parts where it was clearly extremely racist.
It's really fun, I enjoyed my time with it.
