Pros: Suspenseful? You bet! Cons: Characterization is a little shallow. Too many folks to hate!
From the friction of the rapid page turning of one of John Grisham's first novels, "The Firm." I could not put this book down, as the suspense and unique plot made this one of the most thrilling books I have read in quite a while! This is a "must...
Pros: The story is fast paced and believable. The characters are for the most part well written. Cons: Style problems and loose ends give this away as being one of Grisham's earlier works. His romanticism does less for me than his more realistic recent work.
