reading this bored in class was a great way to pass the time.
5By Golden189Great book, especially being a free one. Wonderful plot, wonderful imagery, great wording. There is nothing to dislike about this book, the storytelling is beautiful, and the ending is perfect and mind-blowing. Easily recommend this for anyone who likes to read books with large concepts. Awesome read for any age.Wells
3By 21st Century SeekerI’ve waited 52 years to read this book, it was not what I thought it would be.Amazing!
5By A person who loves books 📚Very thought provoking and interesting! Definitely recommend to all. H. G. Wells is a wizard of words! (Note: I’m a middle schooler. The book was a little challenging at parts, but, overall, it made sense. Don’t be scared!)Didn’t like it
2By MyTwitzWorldA rare case where the movie was better than the book.Kind of Disappointing
3By florminVery abstract storytelling, narrating a worldview better suited for the 19th century. This a great read, if you’re looking to pass the time.Amazing
5By Ashton JPL.I have no words palpable to the tongue to describe the sheer greatness of this book. The imagery and diction go beyond my mind and take me into the future. It was almost as if I was the time traveler and felt all his pain, sorrow, and happiness. This was an excellent read.A fun read.

5By Jesus_Q0I recently picked up reading again and I cannot stress enough how much this book did to remind me of the power of my imagination. Paired with the beautifully written words in this book, I delved deep into each page. I finished the book, and to say I was in the shoes of the time traveler is a huge understatement. I felt like I had gone on the entire trip myself!Loved it. 10/10

5By Prophet AmosA deep thought provoking book, which challenges a new generation of readers to discover their meaning, and our life.Captivating!
5By 001001H.G. Wells was ahead of his time when he wrote this classic. In every chapter, he invites the reader to use his/her imagination and to visualize the facial expressions and tone of voice that the Time Traveler used when telling his story. In my childhood, my only familiarity of this classic was the film adaptation of George Pal. Reading this book was like watching a special edition of the film.Still fresh after 129 years.
4By Navi257This is a brilliant inception of an actual time capsule within a well scribed book.An amazing book
5By nfarmer913A lot times when I read a book I break it into pieces. Like I say I'll read 20 pages a day or 3 chapters a day, but with this book I didn't do that I read the entire book in one whole day. This book is one of the best books I have ever read and it truly is a classic. I highly recommend it to science fiction lovers like me.Excellent!
5By Reader of this bookIntellectually written with flowing words to ignite the imagination!A truly great story
5By BraillercdH. G. Wells at his very best. I have read this book three times in my 62 years and have enjoyed each time.
