Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not an Advocate of this Grisham novel
As many others have said, this book was a big disappoint with absolutely no pay off. I could tell when there was just a couple of pages left & nothing at all had been resolved in any satisfactory way. I really do wish I had read the reviews before purchasing the book. John Grisham has not been consistant in his writings. Not being a writer I can only imagine how daunting it must be to try and hit all your books out of the park. But this is not even a base hit; more like a foul ball. Read one ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Grisham is loosing it....
This is a very interesting plot, but in the end...it is non-sensical. Totally anti-climactic. I am just glad that I only paid 50 cents at a book sale...that's about all it's worth.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Decent, but not Great
As an avid fan of John Grisham's previous work I was greatly looking forward to The Associate when it came available in paperback. I don't think it's his best thriller and the plot didn't have the pacing of a typical Grisham novel. Still I enjoyed it just for something to read.

All in all this was a novel I continued to read and ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Somewhat Entertaining, but Shallow
I've been a fan of John Grisham since The Firm, but this book was truly disappointing. I agree with some of the other reviewers that the end of the book left me feeling empty. Fortunately, I picked up the book second-hand at my local library bookstore, so there wasn't a huge investment on my part. Nonetheless, the time I spent reading the book, could have been spent on a much better book.

As I read Kyle's story, I kept hoping it would get better. However, there are some parts that were just ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - what the heck?
There is some good writing here. The prose, for what it is, works seamlessly. Its tight and keeps a good feeling of suspense from one page to the next.

HOWEVER...

The plot here is one of the worst i have ever come across. It hinges upon the protagonist (the story starts with 'Kyle' being picked up by a few police officers) & a just horribly conceived bit of plotting. It was painful to work through several pages of great writing on one hand that was on the other, leading to Kyle ... Read More
