This book differs quite a bit from his usual lawyer tales, and is quite a bit slower. It's interesting to see a different side to his writing, but I did not prefer it.

Bleachers is an OK book, but in my opinion, not one of Grisham's best.

I love Grisham's voice in all his novels. This was a departure from the legal mystery genre, but it was an easy, enjoyable read. Great for any football fan, anyone from a small town, or who feels nostalgic about their high school "glory days."

If you are from a small town where football means everything, this book will really resonate with you. It's a departure from Grisham's regular legal thrillers and a slower pace. It's like a reunion of the football players and their reminiscing of the old days.
Not his typical lawyer book. I liked this one because I love high school football, and the story was real for me.
What a great read. I read this book in less than 48 hours...all while i was working and juggling several other appointments.
Far from the style we are used to from John Grisham but what a gripping story.
