Review: I am only a 9th grader from New york and I loved this book. I didnt expect to like it, when I first opened it. But after reading the first paragraph I was hooked. It is an amazing book that everyone should read, I have passed it along to my family, and its been the talk at my dinner table for weeks!

Summary: A Suspenseful Masterpiece!!!
Review: This book is outstanding! Grisham's second novel is suspenseful and action packed. Mitch Leery is a man with smarts. Will his smarts help him to get out of the major mess that he is in? Grisham paces this book very well. You'll be hooked from the start! I would have liked the ending to be different, but it is good as it is.

While I highly recommend this book, I don't recomment the movie. The movie is a major disappointment!

Summary: Grisham at his best....
Review: This is a great novel. I still like 'Presumed Innocent' more though

Rating:
Summary: high paced and action packed
Review: The Firm is a high paced and action packed book. It goes beyond your predictions with different twists and unexpected story lines. Grisham uses great charactors to slowly unravel the mystery. Mitch the main charactor is a young brilliant lawyer that joins one of the most succesful law firms in the United States only to discover that "The Firm" in which he signed on to is involved in a assortment of underground crimes. Throughout the book he uncovers more and more secrets that undermind "The Firm" . "The Firm" and it's many partners discover the young threat and underestimate his abilities as he out smarts his way right by them still under their watch. To read this book is to not want to put it down. I'm warning you be ready to be taken in by John Grisham's "The Firm".

Summary: Best of Potboilers
Review: "Firm" is very entertaining, and I would recommend it to anyone with a day or two to kill. Grisham writes in a breezy style, and anyone with a 7th grade reading level should not have much difficulty finishing the book in 10-12 hours. I respectfully disagree with Charlie B's review (see below), which puts Grisham in the same category as Michael Crichton. Such comparison seems inappropriate. Granted, Crichton also writes for popular audience, but after I read a Crichton novel, I usally end up thinking about the book, many months after finishing it. That has not been the case with Grisham. We should keep in mind that Crichton was a Harvard Summa in anthropology, and he has a very vivid imagination. Yet Crichton always tries to tie in social and ethical issues or dilemmas of medical/scientific advances or achievements. This was as evident as early as in "Case of Need." I expect some of Crichton's works to be read and debated 50 years from now. But this will not be the case with any of Grisham's works.
