I love Grisham, and was very excited to read a book that would be a departure from his usual genre... But I was a bit disappointed in "Playing For Pizza". The characters didn't develop as well as they could have, and the ending did not provide any kind of closure- almost like he just got bored & decided to wrap it up real quick. I also could have lived without the pages upon pages of blow-by-blow football action, but that's just personal preference. The thing I really loved was that you could see Grisham's style shine through in the good parts.
I am, and will continue to be, a huge fan :)
