The Judge's List by John Grisham
adventurous
tense
medium-paced
4.5
Thank you libro.fm for my ALC! I quite enjoyed this Grisham novel. The last I read from him was "A Time for Mercy" and it was a little lackluster to me; it lacked that satisfying "justice is served" taste I crave from this author (the obvious problem there is "mercy" is in the title, but I didn't feel it was adequately dished out either.) All that to say The Judge's List hit the spot for me. I enjoyed the main character, Lacy, as much as I did in Whistler, though I don't find her relatable. There were enough lighthearted personal moments to make the heavier content palatable, but of course there was plenty of tension and nail-biting suspense as well. All in all, The Judge's List was a thoroughly enjoyable novel well worth the time to read/listen to it.
Graphic: Murder
Moderate: Death of parent
