Would have been a 5 if not for the disappointing ending to The Lost World. Found out Crichton is an environmental fatalist bc of this book.

It was an interesting read. Like everyone says, it's nothing like the movie; the only scene that was in the movie was the part where the T-Rex pushes the trailers over the cliff.
Over all it was an entertaining read and I would suggest it to any science major... or anyone for that matter.

Probably the best book I've read this quarantine. It's so much better than the movies. I couldn't put it down. It's a great book!

Another read through of one of my favorite books of all time. If you enjoy the films I beg of you to read it, the details and world building is so much more interesting. While the science isn’t entirely accurate it is used in a nice way to add details and help the reader sink deep into the book. It is also clear a great deal of research and time was put into these novels.
