I now get it when people rant about how a book was better than its movie. Jurassic Park means so much to me and I’m so happy I actually liked the book. It was so dark and gruesome and I hated everyone but the dinosaurs. My favorite thing was imagining Rexy sleeping leaning up against a tree by the river. Freaking cutie. 

4.5 because in a book about dinosaurs there sure was a lot of misogyny and fat shaming.

It’s not a big deal, but even though they know all the dinosaurs are females, they flip flop through the whole book say “he” or “she”.

love me some anti-capitalist critique in fiction. really glad they didn’t make lex 8 years old or so damn annoying in the movie. was also interesting to see the choices in what things worked between book and movie.

É bem diferente do filme, mas é muito bom, e o final, em comparação com o do filme, foi bem diferente, e eu achei até mais triste, mas teve detalhes do livro que foi compreensível eles não quererem colocar no filme

Some frustrating inconsistencies for me, but a solid book. Straightforward, exciting, and sometimes gruesome. Would read again. 

Some readers will be turned off by scientific rambling on topics from ecology to computer science; printed graphs of computer screens and lines of code; and several cautionary, moralizing monologues about scientific progress.
