The 25th anniversary of Jurassic Park is being celebrated in two major ways: with the release of a fifth movie - Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, and also with THIS READALIKE LIST I JUST MADE!!

Curmudgeonly booknerds will chime in to clarify that it is the 25th anniversary of the film, not the book, and I invite them to come celebrate the book's 28th anniversary alongside us and we'll squeeze it all on a cake somehow - Life, uh, finds a way.

These 10 selections are for fans of the books, the films, dinosaurs in general, evolutionary biology, or tales of those chilling things that can happen when scientists play God. Some are fiction, some nonfiction, some of the fiction might become nonfiction if scientists get cocky; it's a real grab bag. So come on and grab 'em.

Happy Tyrannoversaury!
