The book behind the blockbuster movie. Book follows it pretty well but i give Spielberg a lot of credit for the cultural phenomenon known as Jaws. Just found out my wife has "boycotted" the movie because of it ill fated effects on shark populations. You can imagine how awkward it was when i told her i was listening to Jaws. I had no idea she boycotted it!

I liked Martin Brody's character and thought him a well done common person hero! the author also does a good job with the location describing it well. He also populates the area with believable well fleshed out side characters. dropping you into a fully realized world. There is a POV switch to the shark during attacks that add suspense. you can hear the music in your head! you know THE movie music! what i did not like was Mathew Hooper and Ellen Brody's banging chapters. i get it, but did not like the bored housewife cheats on hardworking husband. Kind of old school misogyny. could have cut that part out completely IMO! result is a sort of drama thriller about a little vacation town terrorized by a shark!

Were gonna need a bigger review! Well maybe not chances are you know the plot and storyline. the movie is amazing and i would recommend the book to any fan of the movie.
