just finished a few john grisham books, the street lawyer and the testament... eh... they were just ok. i think i'm done with grisham for a while. i also just read the andromeda strain by michael crichton, that was pretty good. just started reading congo

if you like Crichton, did you read Airframe yet? That will make you never want to get a plane again, but it was good

Congo was a great book. Have you read Sphere?

Too bad the movie sucked for both.

iwz iwz ·

Yeah, that's true. But the books are both really good. Sphere is one of my favorites.

grisham is very formulated. if you've read one book, you've read them all.

I read the street lawyer a few years back, and i agree, it's pretty "eh".

I started reading over the summer middlesex by jeffrey eugenidies, because it won the pulitzer prize, and it's on oprah's book club list, and yea, i still haven't finished it. It's pretty boring, and creepy, but not good creepy, gross creepy.

i would agree that the Street Lawyer is not one of his better books... I recommend The Partner it has some real action in it

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

that's the best Grisham book, in my opinion. i devoured it.

englandkid englandkidOG 2003 ·

which one? The street lawyer or the partner?

iwz iwz ·

based on context, i'm gonna go with "The Partner"

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

The Partner. I think it'd make a good movie... the themes aren't original, but I don't care, I really liked the main character. And Sao Paulo, Brazil would be a great location.
