Before I start this review, I should tell you I'm terrible at book reviews so don't slate me for it! This is the first John Grisham book I read and have yet to see the film.

Like millions of people I have seen the film that was made from this book, and I am so glad that I read the book first.

It is ...  Read the complete review

Definetly read the book over the film. This is a great book, it moves along quickly, but not too fast like the film. It takes a good while to set the story, to establish the characters so that you actually know them. He sets it up well, the twists and turns in the book are totally unexpected and very exciting. When the action ...  Read the complete review

This was my first encounter with Grisham, and I read the book, on consecutive nights, for about 5 days. The Firm had me gripped from it's first chapter and proved how knowledgable Grisham is about Law. It is complex, human and addictive as a read and has surprises around every corner. Grisham's knowledge of law blows your ...  Read the complete review
