The novel Jaws by Peter Benchley is a super interesting read. I remember getting a copy during the last few weeks of my senior year in high school from a library giveaway. It was an old copy and the library wanted nothing to do with it. I still own the book over a decade later. And, it’s kept together with a lot of care (and duct tape). Now, I had already seen the movie and was spending my summers dressing like Quint. As it turns out, I really enjoyed the book, too, because of the level of horror, adventure, and Benchley’s style in conveying those themes.
