adventurous challenging tense slow-paced

1.5

Welp I finally finished it this book was a marathon and if it wasn’t a modern classic I’m not sure I would have saw it to the end. But here we are and I feel jaded these years of anticipation soured I truly tried but just did not enjoy this book. It was nothing like the franchise currently is and the characters espcially were just so flat and even the dinosaurs were boring. It definitely felt more science than fiction and I just wasn’t into graph or chart reading every 5 pages. Maybe I’m being unfair since I had built the book up in my head but either way I think I’ll stick to Carnosaur.

Spannend, goede overgangen. Wetenschappelijke thema's worden niet in kindertaal uitgelegd, dus je voelt je niet betutteld. Lex was een vervelend karakter zonder redeeming qualities. Interessante opvattingen over wetenschap, technologie en academici.
