Just finished "The firm" by John Grisham and am in love with his line of stories. My love for law fictions started and ended with Earl Stanley Gardner (perry mason). Never new it will have a rebirth in Grisham. Unlike the 200 page crisp stories of Gardner, Grisham is longer on details and tends to be tad boring. but if you are really into the story then there is no stopping. (finished a 600 page story in 8 hours straight). He is similar to Aurthur Hailey, only far more interesting. I had previously read two of his book, 'the last juror' and 'the king of trots' a while back, i remember it to have being a long read , but then that was the time when i did 7 perry masons a week :). Anyways "The Firm" and "The Broker" are good reads. Can some one suggest me any other books ? And can someone lend me a perry mason? sudden urge to start reading them all over again :) Technorati Tags: books, perry mason, grisham, stanley gardner, the firm, the broker |
