A review by angelsrgorgeous
The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells

2.0

Reading this after Dostoyevsky makes it seem incredibly simple, almost like a sugary children's story, but I'm having a tougher time getting through it than I expected.

Even considering that, the book is far better than the movie - I appreciate that it focuses much more on suspense built within the characters as a result of not knowing exactly what is going on, due to unreliable news, etc. While the book seems simple, it is fairly good
