Book Reviews of The Appeal
Book Review: yawn.....
Summary: 2 Stars
I don't know....I've been such a fan of Grisham's for so long and I was so anticipating The Appeal to be a powerhouse legal thriller. It had the potential to be very interesting; suggesting how elected judges could easily be bought if the money is right, but end result was a so-so novel that preached how immoral big businesses can be and truthfully, it's been done before, so many times, and more well written.
The characters were over the top; Trophy wife, greedy billionaire husband, goody-two-shoes lawyers (the Peyton's), this novel read like a silly Lifetime Movie script.
Disappointed - only 2 stars for this one.
Book Review: zzzzzzzz
Summary: 2 Stars
I am a huge Grisham fan, read all of his books, took me forever to get through this book. I never got interested in any of the characters. Too much mumbo jumbo facts and not enough character building. I was SO looking forward to this book and was very disappointed.
