Book Club Discussion for Jaws by Peter Benchley

Firstly I'd like to say what a great choice this was.  It wasn't something I'd have chosen myself, having seen the film a number of times and thinking I knew the story.  I listened on Audible and the narration was excellent.   I loved  all the additional detail, back-stories and emotions that it carried and which I've never picked up on watching the film.  Maybe because they weren't included. I don't remember the chiefs wife having a fling with the oceanographer!  That was a new an unexpected twist which came across as completely out of character and made me feel dreadfully sorry for her husband.  All in all a surprising 8/10 Swim.
