I wasn't expecting great representation or anything, but the racism was still so so bad. Very pro-colonialism, and I also just got sick of reading this. The book was fun at first but felt so bland by the end.
I did really like the part where they got over a broken bridge by just going really fuckin fast in a train and flying across it. Also Phileas Fogg is kinda a sick name.
