But now I'm sad I did because it wasn't really horror - more science fiction. <br />I'm glad you enjoyed my review!Sophiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00113180708896008365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675785862152144030.post-3643018878291908102014-04-04T04:11:03.142-05:002014-04-04T04:11:03.142-05:00The title of this book has always put me off a lit...The title of this book has always put me off a little - for some reason I thought of it as a Lord of the Flies type book.<br />Your review is very thoughtful and thought provoking and has caused me to rethink my opinion of this book.Bronahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11110584237325026052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675785862152144030.post-62144576768098726292014-04-02T19:05:25.177-05:002014-04-02T19:05:25.177-05:00Yes, it's really amazing how much food for tho...Yes, it's really amazing how much food for thought there is in such a short book.<br /><br />Glad you liked it!

I'd like to read a biography on Wells too, at some point, as I think that would give me more insight into his books. I am bookmarking your review for when I read this book in the future!Cleohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13152128642971612433noreply@blogger.com
