The main character just isn't very interesting aside from his invisibility. I understand why it's a classic, but I didn't enjoy reading it.

4.25 stars. An evil scientist takes his experiment a little too far and reigns terror over a small town. With the themes of corruption, isolation, betrayal, and power, there is much to ponder about while reading this book.
