I enjoyed this book, so so much! A fantastic journey filled with mystery, interesting characters, and a world a step away from our own filled with rich details and a history to make it almost real (if you can look past the mythical creatures, almost charming “zombies” and borderline obsessive junk food eating, which I strongly encourage you do, as the story is most definitely enriched by their presence). I feel like there are many parallels to be made with the current political and social landscape we all now live in, but to be honest I just loved the compelling story and enjoyed escaping into a brilliant page turner of a book. This was a first Fforde novel for me, and I’m relishing the prospect of diving into his back catalogue.
