    Grisham classic

    I recently read “Sycamore Row” by Grisham, many years after I had read “A Time to Kill”. The same lawyer, Jake Brigance, is featured in Sycamore Row, so I wanted to revisit the earlier story. It was especially relevant in this time of Black Lives Matter protests and new light being shined on racism in America. I actually liked the story in the second book better, but they are both good, and I don’t think you can go wrong with John Grisham.

  • Apropos to the characters and locale of the plot event

    I read this book a long time ago and loved it then. The characters are exquisitely defined; complete with all their attributes, faults, strengths and weaknesses. The human emotions were all there: love, hate, fear, profound anger, ambition, hopelessness, unmitigated bigotry, ego, superiority, soulwrenching sorrow and the list goes on. I am a western American and this story confirmed my adult lifelong impressions of the struggles for fairness and equality in the deep south of the 20th century. However, now that I live in the south (TN) those impressions have been modified alot. Though sad beyond belief, it is a great read and a perfectly clear educational tool for future generations of this mixture of people who make up America. Of the John Grisham novels I've been priviledged to ...

  • Grisham's best novel

    Spectacular book--probably his best, which is unfortunate, since he's written about 40 more.... Super-compelling plot--eerily relevant some 30 years later, sadly; fully-developed characters; and descriptive language to set the contentious and explosive mood. It's an essential read for fans of modern "legal "thrillers," even if you aren't a huge fan of Grisham's more recent or subsequent books.

  • Great experience purchasing previously owned books!

    I was looking for a new hard copy of “A Time to Kill” and could not find one. So I settled for a used copy and am so delighted that I did! The book looks brand new and the selling price was incredibly low.

  • Grisham at his best

    John Grisham is one of my favorite authors, but some books are better than others. This one is great.
