I'd never even heard of this novel, but I looked it up on wiki. It looks compelling. I may just end up voting for YOUR book. :-)Quote:

Not going to nominate because I was going to nominate Ann Veronica but Scher got there first. I've wanted to read that one for awhile, apparently if I remember right it was based upon a love affair that Well's had whilst he was married, which was a big deal if you were a public figure then even more so than it is now.
Nominations so far:
1. The Invisible Man
2. Ann Veronica
3. Tono Bungay
All enticing choices; I think I will read whatever's chosen.
You can now vote for the HG Wells book you would like to read in June.
Voted for Ann Veronica. I don't know anything about it but the subtitle says "a modern love story" and since it's written by a man, I'd like to see what it's about. :)
Voted for Ann Veronica! :)
Should I order my copy of Ann Veronica?
I've already downloaded it onto my Kindle. It was free! :yesnod:
I wonder if it is available on Gutenberg as well.Quote:

i found a copy of the invisible man for a buck at a rummage sale a week ago, so i have a feeling it is fate or something.
Thank you! Downloaded :-)Quote:
