Book Reviews of The Appeal
Book Review: "A lot of truth in this story..." as Grisham says
Summary: 2 Stars
At the end of this novel there is an author's note in which Grisham says "...there is a lot of truth in this story. As long as private money is allowed in judicial elections we will see competing interests fight for seats on the bench." This book definitely feeds into Grisham's commentary on the election process of some judges. However, the way the book is plotted out I never quite cared for any of the characters as they were one dimensional and the ending was very abrupt and did not mesh well with the storyline. There was a letdown that the book gave more insight on how to run a dirty campaign if you have the money and connections instead of a legal thriller that Grisham is known for.
