Summary: Downhill for The Partner
Review: I was really dissapointed by The Partner. No twist and turns,no surprises and a unlogical ending. To bad. I really liked, TheRainmaker, The Jury and The Firm. But this one was not at all up to his usual standard. By: Peter Carlsson, Sweden

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A good page turner but not his best.
Review: John GRissom's books are a refreshing look into real lifedrama. While this book was fast paced and made you think.It was nothis best, It started to drag in the middle then picked up and gave us that grissom ending that made you just sit and go huh??? She did what?? no.! she didn't....well I'll be she did.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Grisham's books are begining to sound the same!
Review: Grisham is now, "beating his horse to death" bywriting the same topic over and over, if you've read one of his booksyou've read them all. I can only compare his writings to other great's such as Danille Steele, who have hit on a good format and can turn out their books as if they were popcorn. Of course these author's are making a great deal of money making popcorn. As long as the public buys, go for it!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Grisham is predictable - not such a bad things these days
Review: The Partner let us know what happened to the hero of TheFirm. I liked that. He seemed to run out of steam at the end; closedso suddenly I was shocked. However, the book was written cleanly, fairly and was what we wanted - a good yarn. John has evidently made the decision to support his family by turning out novels which sell well and have a following. There is nothing wrong with that. His style is entrancing, his characters likable, his plots thrilling and he doesn't split his infinitives. What more can you ask? The fact that John's style is recognizable is not a detraction - one feels comfortable with him. How pleasant to look forward to a new John Grisham each May! Keep 'em coming, John - they criticized Dickens too.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Pretty Good
Review: I thought this was a good book, considering all the trash thatis out there. I thought that the characters weren't developed enoughbut that is what you come to expect from the author. It is very engaging and I read through it very quickly. His ending is different but, as if that guy could plan that well into the future. Maybe a few moves, but not like two months ahead.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A definite comeback but....
Review: I would still rank A Time to Kill and The Firm higher as far asthe Grisham books but this one is on par with The Runaway Jury and TheRainmaker. John still has a problem finishing what he has started but in this case part of my disappointment is that I wanted a different ending for the protagonist which means I was wrapped up in this novel.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Partner outwits only to learn he's been a nitwit
Review: I thought this was a better book than many of the more recent,made for tv or movie books that Grisham has dished out. The legal insand outs and the negotiations on all levels, including personal and public, were fascinating and educational. The ending really didn't suprise me as much as it should have because I was expecting something to happen pages before. However, Eva's behavior should be considered in light of the terrific ego and "I can outsmart anyone" attitude of Patrick. How could someone that concerned with themselves get to know anyone really well? A good read, with lots of excitement and quick action.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of his best so far!!!
Review: This book rates right up there with A Time to Kill. It is very fast paced, tense and hard to put down. The ending, was unbelievable, I loved it!!!! This book is full of twists and turns and an ending that will leave you shocked......a must read for any Grisham fan!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful, don't believe the nay-sayers
Review: As usual, you can't put down a John Grisham book. Don't letanyone fool you about the ending being unsatisfactory. I consideredit a distinct possibility while reading. Also as usual, when I finished I immediately wanted a new John Grisham to read.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Absolutely wonderful, until the end
Review: Another great Grisham book, but the ending is one of thosetypes right before a sequel, but I can't see how he'd fill up 200 morepages.
