I just read The Bourne Identity, Jurassic Park, V The Second Generation and Star Wars: Tatooine Ghost. All were good except for V which was only good enough to me because it was based on a show I used to love watching.

I was floored at how different The Bourne Identity was from the movie. I knew it was supposed to be different but there was basically only one scene that was the same between the movie and the book. A few thinks were the same such as Bourne being a spy/assassin and not remembering anything and him meeting a girl named Marie. Just about everything else plays out much differently. Both the movie and the book are both awesome stories. I expect to read the next two Bourne books by Robert Ludlum but haven't decided on the others by Eric Van Lustbader.

Currently I am reading Star Wars: The Joiner King, The first in a trilogy taking place some 25 years or so after Return of The Jedi.
