Rating:  Summary: What a wonderful discovery! Review: One day, looking for something to read, I happened to pick up a Lescroart. Fascinated by his style and the ingenuity of his plotting, I immediately sent off to Amazon for a copy of everything he had ever written. It's a prized shelf in my library, friends, and I'll bet that once you taste him, you'll be as addicted as I.
Rating:  Summary: Improbable Review: One thing to be said for this book, some of characters' names are cool, like Dismas Hardy, criminal defense lawyer and husband of Frannie , who has her behind in a sling and in a jail cell for refusing to testify about a murder before a grand jury. Dis can only free her by proving who the real killer is.This is like Perry Mason, where the killers always came to watch some poor slob get convicted of a murder he or she did not commit, only to have Perry's tricks result in the real killer giving a full confession just before the commercial. Earle Stanley Gardner did it better and more convincingly.
Rating:  Summary: My Book Reveiw Review: The novel was about a young boy named Phillip Malloy that was a Freshman at Harrison High School. Phillip had trouble with one teacher and her name was Ms. Narwin. One day in her class Phillip was humming the "National Anthem" very loudly and Ms. Narwin told him to stop and he didn't then kicked him out of class. Phillip did this again in her class, which got him suspended. I thought the book was okay but some parts were just too boring. The book could have ended earlier but they dragged out the book way too much. Other than that, it was funny and interesting book to read. I personally liked the characters in the book because they were very realistic like in real life. To make the book better they could have had another conflict not just between the same people. I would recommend this book to a sixth or seventh grader not to anyone that is in High School or above.

Rating:  Summary: Fails to Engage Review: This book was released in Australia during the first half of 1999 and I'm not sure why its debut in the US was delayed. From my perspective the booked just failed to engage me and a couple of times I was tempted to give up on it and start something else. It was, however, redeemed by a little bit of pace and interest towards the end. I found the first two thirds of the novel slow, dull & unoriginal. The characters were generally unintersting and at times frustrating, especially the behaviour of Frannie around whom much of the story is constructed. Her character stretches credulity more than can be excused. Frankly, as a reader, I didn't care whether she was ever released from gaol. "Nothing But the Truth" is not a novel to keep one up at night turning pages.
