Title: What a total waste of time...
Review: This is my first Grisham novel and being in a captive (airport) environment I succumbed to the curiosity of examining current "fiction" from a big name best seller. A previous review hit the nail on the head. Utter formulaic crap. It is the book version of network TV programming. A hastily created outline fleshed out with gloss and flash and at no time a shred of human character development of any depth. I was intrigued by the promise of the cover jackets' description about "a conspiracy too horrible to believe". I kept waiting and waiting for the "conspiracy", which turns out to be the concept that big corp pharmaceuticals actually rush unproven drugs to market for profit. Wow, gosh, really? Superficial, boring, trite crap thrown together by a jaded rich type under pressure to come up with "product". A total waste of time.
Is the review positive or negative?
