É bem diferente do filme, mas é muito bom, e o final, em comparação com o do filme, foi bem diferente, e eu achei até mais triste, mas teve detalhes do livro que foi compreensível eles não quererem colocar no filme

Based on how how I usually like my books more character-heavy, you'd think I wouldn't have enjoyed this one as much as I did. However, since there's also a good amount of simplified science, I ate this one up with the same enthusiasm I did Project Hail Mary a year ago.

My biggest grievance with the story was the undeserved demise of Ian Malcolm and all the raptors that just wanted to have a good time and make some raptor babies.

3.5

Some frustrating inconsistencies for me, but a solid book. Straightforward, exciting, and sometimes gruesome. Would read again. 

Some readers will be turned off by scientific rambling on topics from ecology to computer science; printed graphs of computer screens and lines of code; and several cautionary, moralizing monologues about scientific progress.
