Title: Formulaic but still exciting to read
Review: John Grisham's legal thrillers come out of a certain mould, and follows a formula. A formula that's been proven to draw readers like me. While this is good in a way that it makes the sales, it is not so by way of reviewing his work - sometimes I am not left with anything to say anymore. They're all the same....there's always a circumstance, a twist, and most of the time the "hero" saves his life at the end.This applies to "The Broker". I almost did not want to part with it, contemplating even to read it while waiting inside the church before the mass started (I thought better and dismissed this bad idea). Looking beyond the formulaic plot, I'm glad that it all worked out in the end - not that Backman's life was spared, but that he made realizations of the things in life that are more important than making big money and being at the top. If the reader can gleam this, then Grisham can still stick to his formula.
