abercrombie1986 's review for:

The Exchange by John Grisham
3.0
adventurous challenging mysterious tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I have to credit The Firm to getting me back into pleasure reading after college.  

I don't read a lot of Grisham anymore, but this one didn't do it for me.  Maybe it's been too long for me to still care about the characters or my tastes changed or I was swayed to read a book that isn't meant for me or most likely the book didn't really feel like the characters I remember.

It's been 20 years, but the story seemed more about other characters with the original characters making a cameo.  

It is fast paced, tense, and action packed.  There is an international setting.  It was a quick and easy read.

You can easily read this without having read the Firm and maybe those without expectations will love it more than I did.
