A review by ladybaela
Jaws by Peter Benchley

3.0

This one took a long time but I was reading it in sporadic segments and especially while traveling on public transport.

I think this is one of those rare cases where the film is better than the book that inspired it.

A lot of the most memorable moments in the movie are absent in the novel and it includes a subplot involving two of the characters that added little to the plot.

However it definitely had it moments and the final battle as it were against the shark was still compelling.
