This book really surprised me. Loved the movie growing up, but I found the book to be quite enjoyable. Really liked the way the author set up the scenario and sort of wish I didn’t already know what it was leading to so I could have experienced it fully. I liked most of the characters and the ones I didn’t weren’t so insufferable that I couldn’t read them. It felt like a lot more happened in the book than the movie and the ending was quite different. I also think Crichton did a good job of keeping the science digestible and plausible for the everyday reader. Would recommend for a quick entertaining read.
