Really. Damn. Good. It's freaking scary, too. I was scared throughout this book. Malcom rambles a bit too much, but I understand why. Grant is great, and I like the kids. I even like the lawyer? GGOOD BOOOK
Decent book, but a little hard to stay focused on. I will say this is one of the few books where the movie is better... And it takes a LOT for me to even say that as I 99.9% of the time prefer the books.
