The Lost World

Some good moments but mostly sentimental

So I saw both the first movies before reading this and the original Jurassic Park book. Both are quite different from the films and so that makes me feel conflicted as I loved both of the movies.

I do like the philosophical bits by Malcolm and some of the more science-based explanations behind the dinosaur behaviour and such though.

It's written relatively well, not mind-blowing, but easy to read which I guess is good writing.

If you've read the first or seen both films, I'd give this a read as its fun to see the differences and how Michael Crichton intended the story to be told.
