I have read many books which I have disliked - usually becuase the story becomes too drawn out and pointless, and does nothing to develop the plot, or contribute to my caring about the characters. ...

Did you read The Bourne Identity tho?

nope. i didn't. should i? hopefully it wasn't so drawn out. borne gets hunted. someone gets kidnapped. there's a fight. borne escapes. borne gets hunted. arghhhhhh

You just started reading the trilogy in the middle? The first book is the best. And the movies are pretty much just "inspired" by the books, not so much based on them. If you liked The Bourne Supre...

i read the first two in the series... difficult reading (for me anyway) but very interesting. And yeah, the movies are cool, but not even close to the books

yeah, definitely tough reading. but very very cool

so i read the first one and i loved it. a gazillion times better than the movie. then i read the second one and i hated it sooo much that i don't think i wanna read the third one. is it any good?
