The reason I stopped reading Grisham

I have read every single book John Grisham has published. I had great expectations for this one - the follow up on The Firm, the book that made his name. What a disaster. Self-obsessed Americans (the fine dining, the private jets, the yachts, the luxurious hotel rooms) going after the oil. It is the cliché in however many pages this book may have. A very sad undertaking.

So disappointed in John Grisham

Like so many other John Grisham loyalists, I have read all of his novels. The Exchange is by far the worst of the worst…a big disappointment. It lacked an intriguing plot and was definitely lacking in suspense. The book was simply boring. I struggled through chapter after chapter and was glad to finally get to the end.

Long awaited sequel

As the book opens it's fifteen years since Mitch McDeere fled the imploding Bendini law firm known as THE FIRM. For years he and his wife hid out in the Caribbean and Europe, finally rebuilding his law career with a large international firm with its main headquarters in New York City. Now parents of twin boys, both Mitch and Abby are content in their careers. Then Mitch is assigned a case which takes him to Libya which leads to a young Italian female co-lawyer being abducted by an unknown terrorist group. With a bizarre twist Abby is drawn into the story as an intermediary. As Mitch travels in a mind boggling cross global maze trying to arrange the ransom funds, Abby becomes more and more fearful for her family's safety and for the hostage as the deadline approaches. On one level, this is classic Grisham and yet Mitch's part just seemed to be ineffective meeting and meeting. I've read reviews that felt the same and then I've read a review by an international lawyer that said Grisham faithfully captured the behind the scenes negotiations that happen daily. Final verdit -- if you are a Grisham fan, you don't want to miss any of his books, especially the sequel to perhaps his most famous title THE FIRM.

AWFUL!

I love John Grisham and I loved The Firm, so I was beyond excited when I heard this book was coming. Words do not describe how frustrated I was after reading this book. It was terrible, There is no real story line, no real conclusion, nothing. I am an avid reader, and I can easily say this is one of the worst books I have ever read. Nothing happens and it really has nothing to do with The Firm in any real way. This was such an incredible disappointment. John Grisham just phoned in this book, thinking it would be a success because of The Firm. If I could give it zero stars, I would.
