Search - The Client

This book is one of the reasons he is a best selling author

For me personally, the book was a little hard to get into at first. But of course, that’s probably just because of my broken reading tendencies because as the story unfolded, I got more and more hooked on the story; “on the edge of my seat”, anxious to find out what would happen next!

Mark Sway is a kid you can’t help but admire and fall in love with. At 11 years old, he is experiencing something NO child should ever be face with. Yet, he’s determined to protect his family at all costs, proving to be wiser than his years with his intuitive smarts, risk taking, and good judgment. All the while still maintaining his childlike tenderness.

Reggie Love was also an amazing character, with her deep love for children she calls her clients. She definitely goes above and beyond her call of duty when it comes to her little clients. When danger arose after meeting Mark Sway she would do anything to protect him; even if that meant putting her own life in the hands of an 11 year old boy with a crazy plan…

Overall, I REALLY enjoyed this book. The book, although law-related, is easy to read because of Grisham’s writing style. It contains a great story with unique characters and unbelievable suspense. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good suspense, thriller.

A child hires a lawyer, because he is scared because he and his younger brother saw a suicide and the man spoke with him before he died. Criminals and the FBI and other law-enforcement agencies are after him, and he doesn't know what to do! Plus, his brother is in a coma because he's in shaock, so the family has to live in the hospital room. HOw can he get away? How can he groew up safely??

This is another Grisham's exciting books that made me stay up waaaay too late reading! It is not light readiing, but involved, enough to work your brain. It involves a mature child in an adult situation. It has so many people after the child that it takes quite a bit of thinking to keep track of who is with whom. Yet, it is all worth it. Enjoy!

I read this only because it is on my daughter's 4th grade reading list and I figured that it wasn't appropriate for a fourth grader and I think I was right. Maybe written at that level, but the material is too much. For me it was ok, I am not a huge fan of Grisham and so that probably had alot to play into it, but to me it was too wordy and just wrapped up in a few pages after hundreds of pages leading up to what I felt was nothing.

My favorite of all Grisham's novels.
