A review by thejenjineer
To Say Nothing of the Dog by Connie Willis

5.0

I wasn't so sure I wanted to read this. The reviews all mentioned a dramatic shift in tone from The Doomsday Books, saying that this book was mostly comedic. And then the title referenced Three Men ina Boat, which I never found funny. That was two points against it. But I loved The Doomsday Book so much, and that was about 50 points for it, so I went ahead. The shift in tone did need me to make some mental adjustments, but once I did that and familiarized myself with the characters, it was smooth and enjoyable sailing. It was genuinely funny and still clever and logical with all the timey wimey wibbly wobbly.
