    Is it just me or is Lex not sympathetic at all?? She’s just a child but the way she’s written I’m having trouble caring about her.

    Dammit Newman, I mean Nedry. (Yes, I've been reading all of Nedry's lines in Wayne Knight's iconic Nedry/Newman voice, haha). Also, Ian Malcom's explanation of Chaos Theory is really interesting, and more philosophical than I really anticipated. But life uh... finds a way.

    Finally met the T-Rex, and a bit past that. Man, Hammond is infuriating. Novel!Hammond is a lot more interesting, because of how infuriating he is, compared to somewhat well meaning but foolish Movie!Hammond.
