After Reading This I Looked Down And My Nails Were Gone.


Here I am fellow readers, as promised, to review a book!! It's been a whole day since I last posted, and I've been looking forward to this since I pressed the post button on the other one! I really love this blog, it's super fun!! Anyways, I'm going to get to it...

So, at like, 12:13 yesterday morning I finished a charming little tale called The Invisible Man by H. G. Wells. It was written over a hundred years ago! I'll bet Mr. Wells would be happy to hear that more than a century has passed, and the world is still devouring his works! It's not a series, by the way. Did series books even exist back then? Probably, since Sherlock Holmes was written in 1887. Time for the last part of this paragraph, the Amazon link! Here it is! It's really hidden...

Summaryish: Alrighty, this book will be significantly easier to summarize than all the other books I review, because it's not that secretive at all, just mysterious and spooky. But, because I'm terrible at summarizing things, it's still going to be moderately difficult. But I'll try my best. So this book is about this guy who keeps his entire body covered by clothes and other linen materials. But not to mask his identity, to hide his invisibility. But people quickly grow suspicious, and the Invisible Man quickly grows insane. That's pretty much it, I don't think it would be nice to tell you anymore.

Review: I give this book two thumbs up! It literally gave me chills when all that creepy-haunted-house-BOO stuff kept happening. I get chilly-bumps just thinking of it now. Definitely read at home with the lights on. It wasn't scary, so don't worry about that, it was just....eerie. Or would ethereal be a better word? 

Words to the Characters:

Griffin: I feel sorry for you. I wish you wouldn't steel things, though, or threaten to kill people.

Everyone else: Why do y'all freak out so much? He's just an invisible man. Sheesh.

That's it for today. Can't wait to see you next time when I review an Ann Patchett! Woo!
