Journey to the Centre of the Earth

     Very adventurous
     Descriptive
Not realistic- at the end they are thrown out of a volcano of the islands near Sicily having travelled underground from the Icelandic volcano of Sneffels
Fantasy book
Good idea of code to decipher- old parchment in an old book
Not recommended to people who don’t like fantasy and adventure books
Jules Verne- good author of books- other books are “Twenty thousand leagues under the sea level” which I would like to read
Lot of action taking place
There are some boring parts like when Axel and his uncle depart for the journey from Denmark to the inside of Mount Sneffels
The progress of the events in the book is normal: neither too fast and neither too slowly
In my opinion, this is the best classic book that I’ve ever read
Good relationship between Axel and his uncle, professor Lidenbrock, and their guide Hans, the Icelander 
The voyage that they take is full of obstacles, like sea monsters and many other strange encounters that make this book ultra-fascinating
The setting changes a lot of times because this book has lot of action, both on the ground and underground: Hamburg in Germany, Denmark, Iceland, in the subterranean strata, Stromboli- a little Italian island near to Sicily
