Even though the book filled me with excitement and curiosity, I made me a bit uncomfortable about the level of classism that it portrays. Another issue, which is sadly common in books from those dates, is the racism and discrimination. It has to be said. The concepts Jules Verne explores in the book were, and in my opinion are, groundbreaking but these issues make me not being able to rate this book higher than 3 stars.
