4.5

One of the few books where I’d actually say the movie is better. While I really enjoyed reading this, it was a bit slow and meandering for me. But other than that it was great! The characters are realistic, the plot is engaging and fun, and the message is loud and clear.

I loved diving back into this classic. I’ve seen the movie hundreds of times but never read the book. There’s so much more to the book (as expected) and now that I’ve finished I definitely plan on going back and fact-checking the movie in comparison. I’m super excited to see what twists and turns The Lost World brings.
