The Runaway Jury

Rating:
Summary: This book is adictive! nearly as much as tobacco is.
Review: I rate it with 5 stars because it kept me reading and reading and reading without geting a minute of bordom out of it's pages .But I must say that the author could had put litle more of a reality ending to the book.Never the less a great book to read .

Rating:
Summary: The book was informative and captivating!
Review: The Runaway Jury was one of the best books that I have read. Although the way the jury was controlled is a bit farfetched, the plot and the trauma for the defense team is excellent. I can not say that I disliked the book, for it really satisfied me in the way that I rate a book. As for liking it, what is not to say? I stayed up half the night so I could finish the book because I did not want to put it down. I am studying Pre-Law and I think that John Grisham has helped some in knowing what lawyers think. I give it two thumbs up!

Rating:
Summary: As unbelievable as "The Firm" and just as poorly written.
Review: I am a great John Grisham fan, but NO ONE IN HIS RIGHT MIND WOULD BELIEVE THIS DRIVLE! While everyone knows that juries can be manipulated to a certain extent, even the most loyal Grisham fan would pass on this one.

Summary: Oh, you must read this book!...NOT!
Review: When my dad passed away due to lung cancer, three separate people attending his funeral said to me, "you haven't read The Runaway Jury? Oh, you must. You just MUST read this book. " So I did. Biggest waste of time ever! Boring boring boring. And his other books are not that hot, either. I don't care for John Grisham at all.

Rating:
Summary: At least it was somewhat entertaining
Review: I have yet to figure out why I keep reading Grisham's books. I never liked "The Firm", and friends kept recommending other Grisham books as the best one he's written ("The Pelican Brief, "A Time to Kill", "The Rainmaker" etc.) As a result I've read all but the latest 2, but I am sure they are just like the rest; tedious, predictable, implausible, and if any of these students or lawyers were real they would have all been kept from joining the bar or if already practicing, disbarred. Somehow these books manage to further the image of the lawyer as a bottom feeder, even when they seem to be saving us from a worse fate (tobacco companies, insurance companies or assasination attempts on justices). At least this one was entertaining. It didn't make a crucial Grisham mistake, it didn't seem to take itself too seriously.

Summary: Too Detailed
Review: I have read other Grisham books, and I feel they are all the same. Too detailed and very predictable.

Rating:
Summary: The best ever!!
Review: This is the 2nd book of Grisham's that I read. Totally surprise because it's really different from The Rainmaker, which is really slow and boring, though I read it till the end.The Runaway Jury's plot really unexpected and have the kind of making your heart stop!! really good book, and I expect the same in your next book Grisham!! Best of luck.. :)

Summary: Oy Vey!
Review: I've only read The Firm and loved it. While reading The Runaway Jury, I kept waiting for the story to "pick up," but for me, it didn't. I refused to not finish the book, though during my reading, I felt like a masochist. I forced myself to read this book, finally finished it, and didn't like it at all. This book had to be as boring as my own real life jury duty experience. Good thing I didn't bring this book with me...
