Nothing earthshattering, but a good satisfying story, easy to read, easy to sink into.

I liked it

Captivating, well told story.

John Grisham is back and he's better than ever!!! Loved the storyline. Really makes you wonder how many innocent people are convicted out there. I love Grisham's legal thrillers and this is when he's at his best (in my opinion).

It took me a while to read this book, it was long and was not a page turner. It was anticlimactic but was nonetheless a good story.

Just devastating

I love that reading these books is like listening to a close friend relate a story.

I love that occasionally, intermittently, justice prevails in the US
I love that Grisham breaks my heart with every dive into the aspects of this country that desperately need to change.

And I greatly appreciate being given a small opportunity to support those needed changes.

I hadn’t read Grisham in a long time, and this was the perfect book to reintroduce me to his writing.

The amount of research and truth around the process and struggles in trying to exonerate innocent people, amazed me.

This book had me gripped from the start as Post has you following two cases of innocent men in prison, while he fights for their freedom.

So good, not surprising at all. Worth the read.

Remember the scene in 'Four Christmases' where Denver and Susan are playing a game and the answer to "the only man I'm allowed to cheat on you with" is John Grisham? That's when I decided I wanted to read one of his books. I chose this particular one because it was the first of his books I found on my library's 'Skip The Line' list.

All of this to say, I had absolutely no idea what this book was going to be about when I started it, not even what genre it would be.

It turned out to be a legal thriller, centred around the exoneration efforts of a man named Quincy Miller, who has spent 22 years in prison for a murder he did not commit. The story follows Cullen Post, a lawyer working for Guardian Ministries, who are dedicated to overturning wrongful convictions.

I was intrigued by the premise of the book, but sadly I didn't find it to be that thrilling. I finished it a few days ago, and honestly, I can't recall much of the ending or the story. However, I did speed through the audiobook version, so perhaps I'll try a physical copy for my next John Grisham read.
