BOOK: The Partner
AUTHOR: John Grisham
By Clarence Carter
“The Partner” by John Grisham is, by far, the best book I have read all year.
“Camino Island,” also a Grisham novel, was a very close second, but ‘The Partner’ wins the cake.
If you haven’t read this book yet, drop everything and go to your local bookstore. It’s one of those books I couldn’t put down and managed to binge it in a little over a week. In my opinion, John Grisham is one of the greatest storytellers of all time.
There are not enough words in the English language to describe the plot of this book. I want to say devious, but that doesn’t even begin to cover it. The plot is extremely complicated and comes to you in these fascinating waves of information. I lost myself in the book and didn’t want to crawl out. 10/10.
I thought I predicted the end of the book, but I was dead wrong. Brilliant! A round of applause for Grisham and the harrowing tale of a crooked lawyer. I had my doubts about this book, but I am glad I picked it up off the shelf; don’t let the cover or the back piece deceive you.
