Before I have seen the Jurassic Park, the movie, I happened to read the novel of Chricton and felt the terror with Zero-Graphics. Kudos to Chricton.
There are tons of novels made to movies almost all of Chricton and old ones like Schindler's List, Gone with the wind, Howard's End.......
My personal opinion is that the novels made a great impact on me than the movies. I am not blaming the actors or directors. I believe novels gives more imagination to one than the movies.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.

"All around town" by Mary Higgins Clark also on similar lines to Anniyan and "Tell me your Dreams" by Sheldon. Especially towards the end..where one of the bad personalities is back to kill even after several years of treatment..that part..is similar to the end in "All around town".
