Is it interesting characters? Or believable motivations? Maybe writing style? Is the world building?

And how likely are you to enjoy a book that doesn’t fit your own criteria?

    In theory, there are ways to make time travel work, but it’s hard to make it interesting. I don’t think I’ve read any time travel book other than Well’s.

    What book did you particularly enjoy because of its following of its own rules? And the opposite: a book that doesn’t hold up to this standard?

      Have you read Outlander? I think she does time travel well and it’s interesting, at least if you’re interested in that kind of historical fiction.
