I hate to put a Jasper Fforde book in the DNF pile but I spent the better part of a month avoiding reading this particular book because it was boring and preachy. Yes, there were classic Ffordisms and word play and silliness but the overt comparisons to the current state of racism, brexit and xenophobia was overly heavy handed. For the occasional moment of delight there are pages of inaction and a waffly main character.

I'm sorry, Fforde, this book was not for me. And I've read everything else you've ever published so that's saying something.
