Makes me want to read

Loved the Jurrasic Park episode. I had always put off reading the book because i loved the movie so much and i didn't want it to get ruined. But these two do such a good job at discribing the book now i really want to read it, or at least listen to it. Keep up the great work. SUBSCRIBED!!
