hi-light this page to read it if you want to.

I will read The Invisible Man. Shiloh Woiwood. (I'll Change the text if it is annoying) 9-12-10 As the little note above says, I am reading The Invisible Man by H.G. Wells. I am not particularly sure why I picked this book though. Actually, now that I think about it, There are a few Agatha Christie books I could have just grabbed off the bookshelves at home as opposed to using the library like I had to for this book. Anyway, so far, a man who at this point is only identified as a stranger shows up in a small English town. he rents a hotel room and the locals quickly note that he prefers not to remove his hat and wears unusually large glasses that cover a good portion of his face. A while later his stuff arrives which is various bottles of different things, which he immediately starts to expiriment with. Mrs. Hall, the owner of the establishment he resides in, notices that he seems greatly agitated to the point of smashing bottles on the walls. There is a robbery committed with some noise heard but the robber was not seen... Mrs. hall and the stranger, who the locals speculate about his reasons for covering himself, discuss rather loudly his bill and why he had not payed. During the arguement, the stranger removes his hat and the bandages covering his face to show that he seemingly has no head! The constable shows up. The stranger explains that due to an accident he is invisible then removes his clothes and escapes from the building. The stranger give a feeling of being a frustrated man. The story while short sort of drags along. I am sure that will change as I keep readin though. Some of the dialect is almost unintelligable without the notes at the bottom of the page explaining what the person is saying. -Shiloh Woiwood
