I liked both this book and the movie a lot. With that said I listened to the audiobook and felt that the movie didn't do the book justice. I title of the book is important to the story and the movie doesn't touch on this at all. Honestly they should have just named the movie something else and renamed Neville. At that point the only similarities are both protagonist are isolated and have a dog and there are creatures that rule the world mainly at night. **Spoiler** It's frustrating that the movie doesn't address why it's called I am legend. In the book the reason its called I am legend is because he realizes at the end these creatures are now a society of vampires and that it's not them that are the monsters it's him who is the monster because he is now only one human person and they are a whole society that have had to deal with him snatching up vampires to do experiments. He has become a monster, he is the story the vampire children talk about, he is the boogyman, he is the legend.

the movie didn’t follow the book which to me movie was much better

This would have made a far better movie what an amazing book.

there were a mixture of emotions but it was written so well and narrated so well I loved it

I enjoyed this book a great deal. Very different from the movie. I think Neville's unpacking of his emotions and grief were at times exhausting, but lended new layers to his character and were necessary.

It was completely different from the movie and deeper. The narrator, however, lacked the range of voice in comparison with narrators like Frederick Davidson.

I felt the book was entertaining. It is far different from the movie in that the book portrays the infected as vampires. It really went into detail how one might react if placed in a situation where you are living out your days as the last of your kind while simultaneously trying not to get killed in the process. I would recommend this audio book to others, as long as you are not expecting to get more detailed version of the Will Smith movie. The narrator did a great job carrying the story along. All in all I give this audio book two thumbs up.

I couldn't stop listening to this book. Great book.

The book was much different from the movie. Can't decide if that is good or bad as it is comparing apples to oranges IMO. It is interesting but if you want a longer version of the movie then you may want to skip it as the plot varies greatly between the 2.
