I read this book a few months ago. I had mixed feelings at the time; the writing was okay but often too long-winded. Looking back now, I find that I remember hardly anything about the story. That's why the book gets only two stars (instead of the three stars I would probably have given if I'd written this review right after I finished reading).

Far too long of a story for what appears to be a set-up for book #2.

I wanted to like this book but just felt blah about it. I think the subject matter is important but the way this book was written didn’t do anything for me. It was also way too long, it kept my attention but I kept thinking “get to the point already.” At times it was a bit confusing because there were so many different characters to keep track of. I listened to the audiobook and almost gave up but I’m not sure I would have finished actually reading the book. I almost gave up but kept going because I wanted to know how things ended. I think I would have enjoyed it more if there was dialogue from the courtroom. I think based on the reviews I was expecting more front this book.
