Curious to see what the Lemmings are reading this year.

I'll say my favorite this year was "The People of the Deer" by Farley Mowat, a novelization of the authors time spent in the Canadian North.

An incredible read with some wonderful prose.

Unexpectedly, it’s Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton. I’ve always loved the movie and the book adds to it. A real joy to read.

Oh yes, it's been years since I read the book. I really enjoyed all the industrial espionage and corporate scumbaggery added in.

One is my all time favorite books. The second one is also much better than the movie.
