JP Dixon's Most Popular Reviews

Overall an enjoyable read, however, I do recognize that I'm not the target audience, but it is highly recommended for younger readers.

This book is an entertaining read, but I cannot figure out why Jurassic Park needed a sequel. Read it if you were a fan of the first book and want to come back to Michael Crichton's world and have nothing else to read, otherwise, not worth reading.

Rereading in preparation to Wind and Truth, it's incredible the amount of foreshadowing and hints given for future events in the series. I'm sure some of the biggest mysteries, not only for next book but even for the next 5 have already been hinted at in this first book.

I was honestly expecting this to be worse than it was. I get that some people don't enjoy the philosophical writing in the later Dune books but I found it really enjoyable. I liked that this book focused more on the different places that we hadn't seen in the previous books, such as the city in Gammu where we see how ordinary people live throughout the former empire.

After watching the latest "Knives Out Mystery" Wake Up Dead Man, I wanted to read a murder mystery, and who better than Agatha Christie? This was my first time reading a mystery novel, and I am very happy to have taken the plunge. I highly recommend this book to anyone curious about the mystery genre.
