Review: The Invisible Man

The month of scary-book reviews continues! I’ve made it part of the tradition to always include at least one piece of classic horror literature in my October review schedule: Frankenstein, Dracula, etc. Last year I reviewed  The War of the Worlds, so it wasn’t a big leap to review the 1897 story by H.G.
