The only book in my life I could not put down. I still remember how scared I was reading it in the server room alone at the office at night just swapping floppies upgrading Novell servers to 3.11. It was 120 or 130 5-1/4 inch floppies I think.

Excellent read. MC may have gotten a little weird later in life, but his top books are still some of my favorites.

Yeah, I've read the book and watched the movies, but I'll grab the ebook for a good re-read any time I want!

This was my first book that I actually read and finished at a young age. It's so good you can't put down.

I can't tell what's scarier, that or the book. But really this is one of the few books I've recommended to everyone and I don't know a single person who has said anything negative about it.

Apparently i purchased it back in 2015 and somehow it hasn't made it to the top of my list. It's hard when you have kindle unlimited and you want to make use of it.

Read this about two months ago for the first time. Excellent read and so many extra details that couldn't be added to the movie. I highly suggest reading for this price.

This is an amazing book. I was tearing at the pages in some parts trying to find out what would happen. The first 2 movies have much of what's in this book, but obviously a bit different. Its a great read, other than the long expositions by Dr. Ian Malcolm. They went on too long.

Book is nothing like the movie. Not really good. Plot ending is dumb and the kids are brats. You root for the dinosaurs

I've heard the books give more background on the financial situation of Nedry, and I believe some of the strain between him and Hammond.

It wasn't until maybe the third time I watched JP that I caught the remark "That was Hammond's mistake" after the "Don't get cheap on me Dodgson" line.

I'd be tempted to read this just to get more detail on that aspect, as it's kinda glossed over in the movie.
