nicolatte_love 's review for:

The Meg by Steve Alten
4.0

Low 4.
So yes, I picked up the book because I heard about the movie coming out. I was very curious. I got a silly story vibe from the movie so wasn't really expecting much here.
I had a blast with this book. This was so crazy and so entertaining!
I was really impressed with the ride this took me on.
It is a short, easy read with short chapters. Couldn't put it down once I started, especially the last part of the book.
I loved how it was written. It was so easy to see what these characters were seeing. It was creepy. It was funny. It would make my jaw drop. It was action packed! Ha ha.
I loved the constant, different points of views (especially the Meg's). It was very cool and helped add to the visualizing.
This normally isn't my type of story and some of it was a bit too ridiculous for my taste but like I said this was a blast and just so unexpected.
I would recommend this.
I am super excited for the movie now, though I can tell it will be very different from the book.
I'm glad I own this book and will definitely read again and would love to continue with the series.
