The Exchange by John Grisham
3.5
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

The Exchange is a sequel of sorts to The Firm.  Mitch and Abbey are now living in NYC with two boys.  Mitch is a lawyer at a high-power law firm.  He is asked to go to Libya for a legal matter.  He takes a long an associate from London, who gets kidnapped.

I usually love a John Grisham book, but was somewhat disappointed in The Exchange.  I was expecting to see Mitch, who I will always picture as Tim Cruise, in a huge legal battle in court.  Instead, I got a book about trying to free an associate.   It just wasn't the usual Grisham book.  I couldn't get attached to any of the characters, bc they were only there for a bit.  I listened to The Exchange, maybe if I had read it, it would have been better.  Though, there was no court battle, it was an okay book.

😊 Happy Reading 😊
