The Bourne Identity
The Bourne Identity | Robert Ludlum
The Bourne Identity is a 1980 spy fiction thriller by Robert Ludlum that tells the story of Jason Bourne, a man with remarkable survival abilities who suffers from retrograde amnesia, and who must seek to discover his true identity. In the process, he must also reason out why several shadowy groups, a professional assassin, and the CIA want him dead. The story takes readers on a suspenseful and action-packed journey into a world of deceptions and conspiracies, offering a compelling psychological portrait of Bourne, and giving them the chance to experience from his point of view the life-or-death decisions he makes as he seeks to piece together the dangerous puzzle of his missing past. It is the first novel of the original Bourne Trilogy, which also includes The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum. Peter Cannon of Publishers Weekly named The Bourne Identity among the best spy novels of all time, after John le Carr's The Spy Who Came in from the Cold.[1] The novel was the basis for the scripts of the 1988 television movie of the same name starring Richard Chamberlain and Jaclyn Smith, and the 2002 film The Bourne Identity, starring Matt Damon, Franka Potente, and Chris Cooper.

Prompt: Hanna

Both these books are well written and have a great MC. One comment, while I liked The Bourne Identity, I felt the movie was better. Very rare for me.

PageShifter I read The Bourne Identity only couple of years ago. It's a good question if time has treated it well 🤔 It wasn't bad but there were things that made it feel old(ish) 3y
TheSpineView @PageShifter I agree on the odd. I think that is why I liked the movie better. 3y

Started off fast and interesting (though at times appallingly sexist), but I got very turned around in Part 3 in terms of well...Bourne's Identity.
I enjoyed Marie once she got to be the super competent diplomatic financial wizard we all knew she could be, but heck if I understand why she bothers with Bourne half the time.
Also, Mr. Ludlum, if you are so uncomfortable with sex scenes, just fade to black. Weird euphemisms are just uncomfortable.

This pretty much sums up my feelings on The Bourne films. The Bourne Identity was the first true "grown-up" book I ever read, and it was a blast. The second and third are pretty good as well, though I find the climax of Ultimatum isn't as explosive as I'd hoped for. But the movies? Nah, they can kick rocks.

📖 I reread at the first of the year. Still like the movie better.
📚 I don't really have an opinion since I seldom read a thriller. Most don't have enough character development for my tastes.
📚 That would be most of the authors that are in that genre. 😂

I‘ve always liked the movies, so I decided to give the book a try. It‘s fun, but not interesting enough to me that I‘d want to continue with the series. I did appreciate the layers of complexity, though there are some insensitivities in it (Bourne speaks “Oriental” 🤦🏼‍♀️) that aren‘t quite explained by the time it was written. Ludlum should have known better, frankly.

PeterJohn I loved this book. I read it long before the movies though. I take my hat off to those authors who wrote before the internet became so prevalent. What we can search with a question to our phones had to be researched in libraries back in the day. 4y

A twisty and fun thriller. I saw the movie when it first came out and only remembered the bare bones of the story. When Bourne is washed up the shore he has forgotten who he is and what his mission was...he returns to Zurich and his quest to find himself begins. #booked2019 #booktomovie #40thbdaychallenge #1980

Well, Idk if it's a popular book or not...but I really really hate 'The Bourne Identity'.
It was a bestseller upon its publication, the successful thriller series, is still on going, long after Robert Ludlum 's death. And we all know how Matt Damon 's tearing it up as Jason Bourne.
However.....😧
Believe me I tried to finish this book, lumbered to almost 450 pages, then got scared of more 150 pages of excruciating boredom, and bailed.😧

@Libby1

jillannjohn Never liked those either. Matt Damon is another story though. 6y

I wanted to like this book. It was supposed to meet one of my #POPSUGARChallenge prompts, a book that was a bestseller the year I graduated from high school. I tried it in audio and in written format but just couldn‘t make it through the book. I guess I‘ll have to find something else for the prompt.

blurb
CatLass007
The Bourne Identity | Robert Ludlum

I started The Bourne Identity a couple of days ago. So I am alternating between audiobook and ebook. It‘s a big book (22+ hours and 719 pages), which I find to be a bit stiff and plodding. I also don‘t care for the narrator, who just doesn‘t seem to be a natural reader or performer (speeding up the audiobook to 1.25 has seemed to help). But I still find it interesting.

tif My default reading speed is x2.0 😁 sometimes I go up to x2.5 if it's an easy to understand narrator 😳 7y
CatLass007 Does satisfy one of my prompts for the #PopSugarChallenge - A book that was a bestseller when I graduated from high school. 7y
CatLass007 @tif i‘m not sure if I could do that speed. I have gone up to 1.5 on occasion. 7y

Booknerd222 I'm glad I'm not alone in going to 2x speed! I've tried 3x if a book allowes it and my head started to spin, but I could still keep up xD 7y
DivaDiane I read this to my husband shortly after the movies came out. I have to say, I feel the movies are much better. They change the story quite a bit, though. It was excruciating reading some of the dialogue aloud. Ugh. 7y
minkyb Back in the day and I do mean way back, I used to read all of Ludlum‘s books. I don‘t know if they would stand the test of time. I have loved the movies. 7y
CatLass007 @minkyb Well people still buy them and I‘m giving it 3 1/2 🌟 so far. I haven‘t seen the movies. 7y
SandyW I agree with @minkyb . I read them all a thousand years ago. Ludlum was one of my favorites when I was young. They may be dated. 7y

An hour into The Bourne Identity, and I have decided I dislike the narrator. He‘s very affected, stiff. But this fulfills a requirement for my #POPSUGARChallenge a book that was a bestseller the year I graduated high school. I probably will alternate between audio and ebook since I have checked out both versions from the library. Or maybe I‘ll get some audio crochet done.

Teafiend Totally agree. Sort of like it but can‘t get through. Maybe overwritten? I‘ve been reading it for over a month and I don‘t remember EVER taking that long to read anything! 7y
CatLass007 @Amyg3 Glad to know I‘m not the only one. 7y

ErikaB I hate it when I don't like a narrator. I find that even if I make it through the book I don't remember much about it because I didn't realize that I wasn't really listening. 7y
CatLass007 @ErikaB I‘m not really in an audiobook frame of mind, either. I don‘t know what that‘s all about. 7y
ErikaB @CatLass007 I'm having the opposite problem; I barely read any physical books last year, most of my numbers came from audiobooks. I'm lucky enough to be able to listen during part of my work hours. 7y
CatLass007 @ErikaB Oh, I went through a huge reading slump when all I could do was listen to audiobooks, or read graphic novels. But I seem to be over the slump, and now all I want to do is read something I can hold in my hands, preferably “real” books as opposed to ebooks. 7y

True story: This is one of my top five movies of all time (I do not have an explanation for my taste in movies). I've never read the books, so here goes. So far, it is delightfully overwritten in a way that is working quite well in audio, and I am totally hooked.

#90sInJuly #day14 #ScarTissue A man wakes up covered in scars, bullet wounds, knife scars etc, and no memory. Thus starts this spy thriller, with a man with no name trying to find his identity & stay one step ahead of the men trying to kill him. With the name, Jason Bourne, comes a past which he might have been better off not knowing. I first read this as a teenager & loved it, the subsequent books are just as good.

GlitteryOtters Sorry, no swap from me! Summer is horrible for me (33C?! No freaking way!!). I have heart failure & recent studies show that heart failure patients don't cool down like regular folk in summer (some weird thing about our blood vessels near the skin acting different or something? Not exactly sure of the physiology, I WAS an English major after all!), so winter is totally my favorite. No overheating, plus you can bake without overheating your house! 8y
Lizpixie @GlitteryOtters I'm in the same boat. Small fiber neuropathy with autonomic dysfunction means my nerves that control my body temperature & sweating don't work normally so I overheat really easily & get very sick. Yay me, living in one of the hottest, humid countries in the world!🤗 8y

#photoadaynov16 #day22 #spynovels What spy novel is more famous than The Bourne Identity?I had the original with the 80s cover but it got "borrowed"? so had to buy a movie cover to replace.Jason Bourne wakes up in Europe with no memory or name. With just some bullet scars & some microfilm found implanted in his hip he tries to find out who he is before his attempted killers try again. I loved this when I first read it, much better than the movie.

Waited all day to get back to this place and pick this back up. My friend Jeff's book comes out in a few days and I'm holding an ARC in my still slightly feverish hands. Think Jason Bourne with a more supernatural conspiracy afoot, written in snarky journal entries! Note: cover reveal pending!
