Delivery was on a Saturday although it was programmed for the following Monday. That saved me having to have it sent to where I live since I was still at the address where it arrived on Saturday.

fascinating thriller. If you want a page turner, this one is hard to put down.

I enjoyed the book until the final chapter. The conclusion was disappointing and wondered if the author ended it the way he did to use the characters in a sequel. If so, I will not read it.

John Grisham is the only fiction writer I religiously read. His latest book, "The Associate" rates right up there with his most intriguing novels, which in my opinion are The Firm, The Pelican Brief, and my personal favorite, The Runaway Jury. Glad he's got a hit this time, as he's been in a slump for the last few years, hovering around the Mendoza Line.

The concept was definitely intriguing, a peek inside the life of a very intelligent Yale Law grad working at one of the best law firms in the world. However, the execution was plain out disappointing. The first 100 pages are slow, the middle 100 were slower and the last 150 we decent, but the ending was awful. No answers revealed, no justice, no satisfaction!
