Despite having finished roughly ten books since my last Bookshelf update, the books have all been ones I’ve read before, so I didn’t feel like I needed to review ’em.
Today, I just finished The Invisible Man by H. G. Wells.
I’ve decided that I’m going to read a lot of old school sci fi this summer. Wells is the number one author on the list.
I enjoyed The Invisible Man. One aspect that I felt was very intriguing was Wells’ decision to have Griffin be an albino. Here’s a man who goes from being incredibly noticeable to invisible.
Wells could be accused of “info dumping” when Griffin explains how he became invisible. As a writer (however amateur) I thought of how I would’ve have written it. I’m still mulling over the details.
It’s also one of those stories where you assume you know, but don’t until you read the story.
Up next: I’m not sure. Maybe I’ll finally finish Dracula or War of the Worlds.
