A scean which JAWS eat a women at night is terrible for me.
I was excited by from Chapter8 to a last Chapter.
I haven't seen the movie of 'JAWS' yet.
So I want to see it some other day. ( )

This story is very thrilling.
It is very awful that the shark kill people.
But I think the movie is more powerful than this book.
I have never seen the movie, so I want to watch the movie. ( )
