G ~ Grisham

John Grisham.  I love his legal thrillers.  I've read every one I can get my hands on.  I've been reading his work for somewhere around 30 years now.  His novel A Time to Kill is one of my all-time favorite thrillers.  It was also made into a pretty spectacular movie, as were many of his novels.

If you love thrillers and haven't given Mr. Grisham a try, I can only tell you that you're missing out.  His novels about baseball and other topics aren't quite as good, but his legal thrillers are absolutely the best out there.

    I have only read one Grisham book - The Confession - but seen a few of the movies, including A Time to Kill. Definitely a master!

    I've read Time to Kill and the Pelican Brief. His books also make great films. Love the million pages challenge in the sidebar. What a fantastic goal.

      Thank you! I found the one million pages challenge at another blog (which is gone now) and I loved the idea too.

    I used to love his books- but lately his new ones are not as engrossing for me as before!

    This is the second recommendation to read Grisham in as many months. I guess it is time to see what I think of them.

    I've bought a couple of John Grisham's books to read over the years but somehow have never got around to it. Might have to give it a go sometime soon (or find an audiobook of his anyway!)

      I hope you'll find time for him. He's a very good author and I think you'll love his books!

    Thirty years? Seriously? If you had put the over/under at 20, I would bet the under.

    I loved A Time to Kill too. Great stuff. I've only read a few Grisham, loved them all, but ... time.

      Well, I read A Time to Kill as a new release. That was 1989. So, yeah, almost 30 years ago now.

    /i read "The Runaway Jury" and liked it OK, but my favorite author of lawyer thrillers is Lisa Scottoline.
