This was a really enjoyable read! I didn't expect it to be so different from the movie though. I mean they changed entire characters and locations to make it work better in a shorter format. I am obsessed with the morphine ramblings of Ian Malcom. I wish he didn't get hurt so early in the book. Also, I know that Lex was like 5 and responded normally for that age, but I thought I was about to throw the book sometimes because of her. All in all, loved it. A little slow in the beginning.
