The Time Machine by H. G. Wells

(read on iPhone)

This is a classic, but I didn't really find it very interesting. I think movies and special effects have ruined my imagination for time travel. Perhaps I was reading it like a script for a movie. The time frames he used were really ambitious. I think he was saying man's future is bleak. But I might be quite mistaken. When the book ended, I felt like perhaps the return dial was slightly off and my mind was a few microseconds out of sync with the world. I feel better now.
