Calico Joe by John Grisham

emotional inspiring mysterious reflective fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

Readers unfamiliar with major-league baseball in the 1970s might find this book tedious.  For those who grew up in that time, it is a comfortable return to that era.
