Well, I finished the Time Machine and I must say that I enjoyed it very much. It was not at all as I expected it to be. It was an exciting book full of adventure. The general plot is that a scientist invents a time machine and travels to another world where he stays a little while because it seems like paradise. However, he soon realizes that the gentle people that he is staying with are actually "cattle" for the wild animalistic people of the underground. These almost inhuman beings have captured his time machine so that he cannot leave without encountering them on a very close and personal level. Then, of course, he runs into the dilemma of what to do with the sweet gentle people he has grown to care for now that he knows their eventual fate. As I said, not at all what I expected it to be. It is a very delightful book. I suppose I could expound on deep theories and analyses. However, I was reading this simply for fun and to broaden my mental library. So I won't expound on anything other than it was a fun book and not overly long so it can be finished rather quickly.
My next adventure in reading is the complete Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. I have read a few of these (Hound of the Baskervilles), but have not read in its entirety. I must say it is a bit drier than I expected so far. Anyone else out there in blogger land adding to their mental library?
Blessings to all, Kat
