Description
One night in the reform club, Phileas Fogg bets his companions that he can travel across the globe in just eighty days. Breaking the well-established routine of his daily life, he immediately sets off for Dover with his astonished valet Passepartout. Passing through exotic lands and dangerous locations, they seize whatever transportation is at hand—whether train or elephant—overcoming set-backs and always racing against the clock.

This was my favorite book of the year by far. Everything about this book was beautifully complex. AROUND THE WORLD IN EIGHTY DAYS forced me to feel the characters' emotions.
