I had never read a John Grisham book. But I am generally a believer in the notion that “if something is hugely popular, there must be a reason for it being so.” So I assumed there was something massively entertaining about John Grisham’s writing. A week ago I picked up “The Street Lawyer,” and I was prepared to be entertained.
Boy, was I wrong.
This book stinks to high heavens. This man cannot write. “The Street Lawyer” is badly written, stupidly plotted, and riddled with banalities and cliches. I could go on, with great fervor, for hundreds of words, about what makes this book abysmally bad, but I’m going to save my energy. Please, just trust me, this book is terrible.
I shudder to think that the American reading public is engrossed by this man’s words.
What else should you expect from John Grisham? This book is hack-work par excellence.
This is an area all of us need to focus on, but this book was just hard to read and the ending was rushed and left you wondering did he run out of things to say.
Writing and story were not characteristic of Grisham. He seemed to write as if his readers could not remember what was just said in a previous paragraph. Very preachy about the plight of the homeless. I am giving it two stars because I could actually finish reading it, but I do not recommend this book at all.
The book was incredible to say the least! I have only read 2 of Grisham’s books; including this one. The other was “The Pelican Brief.” I will have to say that “The Street Lawyer” is far better than the other book. Grisham spends a lot of time explaining the detail about the characers and their surroundings. This sometimes makes the book less interesting to read. However, for this story, the details were nescessary. Otherwise, the reader would not be able to fully understand the main character’s feelings and actions. All in all, a great book! I would highly recommend it!
