The Beasts of Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Fiction, Literary, Action & Adventure by Edgar Rice Burroughs
4.0
If I'm not mistaken this was the book that the new movie was very loosely based on, only in the movie they kidnap just Jane, and there is no baby. It was an interesting read, but there was one part that I thought was pretty stupid. Jane escaped her captures and then comes across a wild white guy hanging out with a pack of gorillas, and instead of saying hey, that's probably my husband, she hides and they all go right by her. If this was the first book than sure, but this is the third, they're married and have a kid, and how many savage white guys who hang out with gorillas did she think there were in Africa?? Other than a couple of times like that, when the characters were being pretty stupid, the book was pretty good.
