I wanted to read this to compare to the movie. It’s a very quick read. If you’ve watched the movie as many times as I have, you will notice the obvious differences right away. Over all, a good read, and yes, there is still a flying cow.

I am addicted to watching movies as I am in reading books. The pleasure is doubled when a book I've read is adapted to a movie. In this case the movie is really as good as the book, for it IS the screenplay so it did not at all vary. This version is the original screenplay of the movie Twister. Having read this before watching the film, it confirms that a person's imagination truly knows no bounds. Not to downgrade the intensity of the movie scenes but the events seem to be wilder in my mind than in the big screen. Truly, reading is one of the best activities to stimulate your imagination.

Better than the movie that I believe was based on this book.

I still love the movie more. The book was good and gave little but not much more detail than the movie did. I’m very glad that they didn’t add a few scenes from the book into the movie because it really would have just made the movie less enjoyable and rewatch worthy.
I liked Jo’s background better in the movie because it gave her more of a reason to chase the tornados versus in the book they didn’t really give her a reason except that she was fascinated by them and all.
Overall I’d definitely recommend just watching the movie, it is way better.
