    Smile John Grisham Books

    I think John Grisham is an excellent writer and his books can really hold my attention. However, I have just finished reading "Bleachers" by him and have to tell you that it is just so different from his others. I do recommend it but it's not a law/lawyer based work. It ended differently than I expected and I was surprized. Thought I had it all figured out. It's shorter than his other works as well. Keep it in mind for your summer reading or when you want something a bit out of the ordinary.

    I've started reading the King of Torts now. I think this is the only one I haven't read yet.

    I can't believe how far behind I am in reading his books. I just got The Summons from a friend, and I'm going to start reading that this weekend. I think it looks a bit familiar--like maybe I've already read it LOL

    I haven't read either of the ones you mention above either Pat. I better get reading

    Pat I have to agree with loving his books. I just started reading him in January of this year and I'm hooked. I love how, at least with the books I've read, that I can never tell the ending.

    I always read the last page of a book before I begin, but his always have endings I can't figured out just with reading the last page.

    I love John Grisham! I finished reading, The Last Juror, last week. I would highly recommend it. I loved The King of Torts. I won't comment and ruin the ending, but boy, does John Grisham know human nature!

    Thanks for the review of "Bleachers". I am going to try to pick it up from the library when it becomes available.
