The Broker
John Grisham
Delta, 2006
This could be Grisham's best book written to date
This book is by far the best book Grisham has written. The plotline was believable and the espionage was not hokey, as some authors can get when they don't really know what they're talking about. The plot was a l nail biter right until the end and then I was still sure ...

The Innocent Man
John Grisham
Dell, 2007
For those who don't believe in the justice system...
Someone suggested I read this book because of my strong opinions about the criminal justice system. She felt that I'd like it, but I browsed through the book, and although sometimes the language is repetitive, I bought my first audio book hoping it would be more ...

Gripping story
Grisham proves once again that the legal world is his domain. While not a great deal of the novel takes place in the courtroom, the legal world stays front and center. The novel revolves around big business and those it hurts and the legal world that tries to play ...

A Painted House
John Grisham
Delta, 2004
No plot? Hmm. I think you need to read it again.
I'm surprised by the reviewer who gave this a rating of one, and stated there was no plot.
The plot is that of a boy who loves his family, but must keep secrets far bigger than his age. We see the beauty of the relationship between family members. We see the reality ...

The Brethren
John Grisham
Island Books, 2000
Hysterical
This book is absolutely marvelous. Very very funny, very very entertaining. As is usual for a Grisham book, no one is exactly the "good guy" in The Brethren, everyone is kind of their own bad guy, and you feel like cheering for all of them. I loved this- it's ...

The Client
John Grisham
Delta, 2005
Off to See the Wizard
After reading the bestselling paperback "The Firm," I fell into the habit of reading John Grisham's novels. Of the half dozen titles that I read, this is probably the best of the lot. I would rate it as being better than several of his other better known novels.
