If Nineteen Eighty Four is my favourite book, this has to be a close second. The original Sci-fi, and a fantastic work.

I personally felt an attachment to the character Weena like I have no other character in a book ever. Also the ambiguity of the ending, means it can still be talked and contemplated about, far after the reading is over.

I definately recommend reading this book to anyone who hasn't.

I remember reading this when I was in the 8th grade for English class. It was actually the only book that whole year that I got into that the teacher gave us. It's very good. I wouldn't call it my favorite though.

I also would recommend it to anybody that hasn't read it.

I highly love time-travel. It's a big swinging vote ^^

The movie sucked big time. It was nothing like the book. Guy Pearce screwed up Count of Monte Cristo and now he screwed up Time Machine

Which verison? The old one or the new one.

Although the old one wasn't a touch on the book, I did actually enjoy it. I am yet to see the new one though.

This was one of the first books I've ever read....This book is one of the reasons why I love sci-fi (another is War of the Worlds). I agree that the new movie totally sucked....in the otherhand I found the old version more entertaining (it was more close to the book). So yeah...I recomend it to anyone who hasnt read it yet
