Title: Yucky!
Product review: I haven't read Grisham's books for a few years, so I was probably 12 or 13 when I read the likes of "The Firm." I loved his books back then, but I found this to be generally a boring book. It's written for a reader with below-average intelligence or reading skills, the characters (mostly the heirs) are flat and boring, it's WAY too long. Besides some interesting parts (like in Brazil), it's generally just not that good. If I'm reading a book I really like, I'll finish it in a few days. But this book took me almost a month, not because it's hard, but because it almost felt like a chore. I wanted to finish it, but I didn't really want to sit down and plow through it, after about the third day. Don't waste your time. And that Publisher's Weekly review is dead wrong. If he's following in the footsteps of Dickens, the world is a sad place.
