shanajade 's review for:

The Lost World by Michael Crichton

5.0

This one was good, but not AS good as the first. But only because there was so much evolution/extinction jargon/discussion throughout. It was around halfway through probably when all that finally stopped and it became all action focused. I didnt HATE it, but it DID make for a slightly slower story. Still excellent though! 😁 I also have to say, these both had super satisfying endings for the antagonists. 🫣😆 

I wish I saved clips for quotes again... there were two in particular I wanted, but didnt have my phone out and handy to grab... one was something to the effect of the antagonist referring to the T-rex as a really big frog, because of a paper someone wrote theorizing it shared visual genetics with a frog causing it to not be able to see still objects. 💀 

Definitely worth the read!
