Summary: A great and suspenseful book about how we can find morals.
Review: Michael Brock is a character we all should look at closer. He has it all. A beautiful wife nice job and a great car. But then he realizes what the true call of law is. It is well written and suspenseful from beginning to end. I was extremely fulfilled with my purchase of this book.

Summary: What did you do with your day?
Review: While many criticize this book as being hypocritical (i.e the character, Michael Brock willing to walk away from millions, while the author rakes it in) I think it accomplishes its goal. This book makes me believe that a person can be satified in a career choice that brings reward in terms of personal satisfaction rather than money. Though it wasn't perfect in terms of character development, I enjoyed this book, the plot, the language, the narrative voice. No, I'm probably not going to quit my job to become a social worker or homeless advocate. But will I, like Michael Brock, begin to see things around me I haven't seen before? Will I find time to help where before I didn't even have enough time for my own pursuits? More than likely. Thanks for a thought provoking book, Mr. Grisham.

Summary: HORRIBLE BOOK
Review: From the time I opened up this book, it was predictable! I only had to read the first 50 pages to know what would happen in the end - I flipped to the end to make sure that I was correct. Not worth the seven bucks!! - Grisham - WHAT HAPPENED?????

Summary: Oh boy, oh boy!
Review: A typical example of middle class angst posing as a crime novel. Worthy topic given a simplistic agit-prop treatment fit for the intellectually challenged. Cardboard, two-dimensional characters. Flimsy and utterly predictable plot which drags us slowly but surely towards a painfully obvious denouement. Not an original idea in sight. On this form Mr. Grisham could do us all a real favour and go back to his legal practice, contractual obligations towards the publisher notwithstanding.

Summary: Not a thriller; a trite political screed
Review: Grisham clearly is tired of writing thrillers and is trying to branch out into social activism. Just like his earlier book on capital punishment, this exploration of the politics of homelessness is a tiresome read.
Rating:
Summary: Very lame, poor attempt by Grisham.
Review: This book reeks of something written merely to capitalize on Grisham's popularity in order to make money. Poor plot, poorly written. A waste of time and money.

Summary: Novel that made me a John Grisham fan
Review: This book kept me interested from page one to the very end. Very difficult to put down Great suspence and fill of action. You can't help but ask the question, are big law firms really like that?" Now its on to the Grisham novels I have not read. Too bad the author said this one will not be sold to Hollywood.

Summary: VERY INTERESTING
Review: I liked the focus of this book. It makes you think of the homeless in a new way. It brings to light some of the problems the homeless face such as where to spend the night or get a meal. It really made me think.

Summary: ONE OF HIS BEST YET!!!!!
Review: Grisham has outdone himself. This book kept me interested throughout every word. It started with a bang and the suspense and action never died. A true Grisham classic.

Summary: I am disappointed......could be better......
Review: I've read all of John Grisham's books, "The Street Lawyer" is not in the same caliber as ther other earlier books written by the author. The author could make it more exciting, but the story didn't get into any kind of climax at all. I liked John's idea of helping the homeless, but that is the only thing I liked about this book. As a fan of John Grisham's book, I expect better books from him.
