The Brethren

Summary: Vintage Grisham
Review: The Brethren reminded me of Grisham's earlier books. I have liked all his work, but this plot kept me reading, finished it on one day while traveling. Great book.

Summary: Low budget T.V. movie
Review: Grishams latest reads like a bad t.v. movie. very thin, with very shallow characters. It is a quick read with an interesting premise. But as with his last few books the ending is boring and contrived. I have been a very big fan of grisham since "The Firm". I have everyone of his books in first edition hardcover. When the next one comes out I'll use the library before buying. It almost seems like he's trying to write simple screenplays instead of novels lately. Complete with the disney fairytale endings. Very disappointed!

Summary: Not his best but possibly his worst
Review: It appears John grew tired and wrote an ending just to stop the pain of continuning a weak story line.

Summary: Add a Star For Grisham Fans
Review: Very predicatable beginning. No suspense whatsoever. Towards middle of book, story takes on twists and turns, that had me guessing as to what was going to happen next.

Summary: Wait for the paperback...
Review: Decent read, has its moments but a real non-event of an endin

Rating:
Summary: Good but not the best
Review: This book was good and intriguing but it was not one of Grisham's best. Perhaps I have higher expectations for him then other authors. It was, however, a good book. I did enjoy it and as I often do, finished it within a week. :-)

Summary: The Brethren
Review: John Grisham did it again. This book was wonderful, I couldn't put it down. The funny thing is now a days in society the storyline is not too far fetched. I had a clear vison of the characters, the settings, etc. I really enjoyed the character Teddy. He exemplified all that I could imagine about the CIA. The twists and turns and suspense were worth the wait for the release of the book! A MUST READ. A Masterpiece!

Summary: One of his best
Review: What's the matter with a pessamistic view of Washington DC politics? It's not like it doesn't happen everyday! I read this book in two days!

Summary: I'm glad I didn't buy this book!
Review: I used to think that anything written by John Grisham would be worth reading, but my opinion changed with THE BRETHREN. This book has no redeeming features! There are too many characters with no characterization, minimal plotting, and no real resolution.
