best john grisham book?

[vrbaba]

worth reading any which are not movies?? (seen the movies)

i like thrillers and mysteries

UPDATE: I read the Testament... and it sucked. omg, i feel like it was almost a waste. i wanted excitement and mystery and thriller... most of u guys told me to read a religious book by an author trying to portray his image of christianity in me and telling me what good morals are. WTF!

guess no more grisham for me. Ill stick to the movies, much better. And why wasnt this book anything like his other movies... i was expecting a thriller.

The books > the movies IMO

 

[shortylickens]

Despite being a movie, the Rainmaker was decent.

 

[Schadenfroh]

I have only read The Street Lawyer and it was great.

A time to kill

They're all pretty much the same. Go to the library, go to the fiction section, find the "G" section, close your eyes and point.

The Testament, The Brethren.

Get the one where the young lawyer battles against the odds and a corrupt system to win an incredible victory.

'A Time to Kill' was the best book by far.

Painted House was pretty decent. Not one lawyer in the whole thing.

 

[Argo]

The firm was good, way better than the movie.

added poll, help me decide

grisham has gone downhill imo. it seems that his latest books are written in order to be made into movies...not a good way to write a book by the way.

I liked it too.

I also agree with Argo that The Firm was way better than the movie.

I have read about 6 of his things. The Testament was my favorite. I have read: Brethren, Client, Time to Kill, Street Lawyer, Pelican Brief, Painted House....

 

[DainBramaged]

Out of those...The Brethern. I liked that story the most but the only other one I had read in your list was The Testament.

 

[vrbaba]

i guess from my list, people seem to have liked the Testament and Brethren the most.

I like a combination of thriller and mystery in a fiction book. some of my favorites include Da Vinci Code, State of Fear. I will read more grisham if I like the one I read.

i guess brethren or testament it is...
