I recently read War of the Worlds. I read it on Saturday and Sunday. It's a shortie (212 pages) and I could have read it all Saturday but I'm trying to draw out books more and read slower.

I enjoyed it, definenetly see why it's a classic. Not that it's the best book I've ever read but it was pretty solid.

did you notice how sci-fi books/movies/etc that came after it totally copied some of it?

Yeah! Also, from what I hear of my mom from the original movie and the clips I've seen of the newest one...don't follow it at all really.

what do you mean?

Well besides the fact that they decide to do it in the present time period, which is kinda cool anyways, just watching the clips makes me wonder if they read it. You see things flying around in the air and the ground flying up and it just doesn't..I don't know look right. Also, if Tom Cruise is the main character who the heck is Dakota Fanning supposed to be? There's only one main character.
