Meg by Steve Alten

3.0

I adored this movie, mostly due to my borders on obsessional love of Jason Statham's abs, but I never realized this was based on a book. I decided I had to read the book, and I'm glad I did. The movie was just enough different from the book that I was able to enjoy both of them as separate entities. I liked the bit of Paleontology in the book about the Megalodon. It probably says something about my personality that I still enjoy learning about dinosaurs, but much like a young child. I don't want to learn too much because I still want to enjoy Jurassic Park, both the movie and the books. This story embraced that desire, just enough info to help me enjoy the adventure aspects of the book.
