A review by jason_pym
The Appeal by John Grisham

2.0

Too didactic to be enjoyable as a novel (money ruins politics etc). Also, using cases similar to Flint, Michigan and the Fentanyl crisis to make a point reads as lazy shorthand - though that's a bit unfair, as this was written in 2007/8 before they hit mainstream media in such a big way.

Way below Grisham's usual standard, a bit of a chore to get through.
