The Confession (Abridged): A Novel Audiobook

" not my favourite John Gresham book, unfortunately "

" Liked it, typical Grisham, but my first e-book. :-) "

" Grisham continues to write work that is suitably depressing about the state of the US legal system. It frequently reflects my despair that nothing ever improves. This book continues perfectly in this vein. "

" Quick, fun read. Nothing ground breaking, but I read it fast and didn't want to put it down. "

" John Grisham can be a nice entertaining read to replace TV watching, however, this book is overkill and unbalanced. I loved Runaway Jury tho. "

" I listened to this book. I really liked it although it seemed a little long. A book that will make you think about the death penalty. "

" Loved it, typical Grisham.. Great read! "

" I've been reading John Grisham since I was a teenager and he is one of my favorite authors. After a few weaker books, in my opinion, he's back in force with a fantastic and serious book that changed my view about the death penalty. "

" Made me cry but again shows that our justice system in not perfect. "

" Pretty entertaining and suspenseful until about half way through. Then it is just got predictable. The second have wasn't nearly as much fun to read. "

" Not bad. Not great. But it did hold my attention. "

" Anyone who is undecided on their stance on the death penalty should read this book. It changed my mind. "

" This was a fast read, very intriguing with its premise and the exploration of what can go disastrously wrong with our country's allowance of the death penalty. I'd gotten bored with Grisham a few years ago, but now I'm eager to pick him up again. "

" Loved every character in this book! From the good guys to the bad. Each one had a strong need to be in the story. Great book from the very beginning to the very end! "

" Reasonably good book. But the suspense ends midway thru the book. However, John Grisham tells a good tale. "

" I loved it. it made me rethink the death penalty. "

" Loved this book. Kept me interested from the start. Very descriptive and well written. "

" The good guys were too good, the bad guys too obnoxious, dumb and corrupt and JG took far too long to wrap up his story after the execution. I think he often does much better this one, "

" fast read! (done in 2 days). Very suspenseful! "

" Book finished to thirds in. Author added until he got his quota of words. You wait for a twist which doesn't happen! "

" this is an obvious statement against capital punishment, as Grisham doesn't mask his bias. the plotting is overt and there is little suspense as the ending is a foregone conclusion. "

" i really enjoyed this book, i found it riveting and it tackles a very relevant subject and one that sadly, exists. what happens when an innocent man is sentenced to die. "

" Page by page I was on the edge of my seat! Just READ it! "

" Not perhaps his best book... but an interesting concept about what justice really is... and what closure means... "

" I stepped outside of my literary box to try something new. Going back in now. "

" I just finished this book over my vacation and it is a typical Grisham book. He gets me sucked in quickly and I enjoy trying to figure out what is going to happen to the characters. "

" this was a predicable Grisham book but entertaining. "

" I liked it but it was a bit preachy with regard to the death penalty. The story had some good twists and the pace of the book was great. "

" Typical Grisham. Fast paced, can't put it down. "

" Typical John Grisham. Knew what to expect and so I enjoyed it. "

" Loved it! Very Southern and refreshing for him to go back to this genre after venturing to NY with a recent law school grad perspective in the Associate. "

" Great read if you have the patience. Typical of John Grisham - the detail. The characters are alive indeed. Not literally, meant when you are reading it. "

" The first half is suspenseful but once you find out what happens with the execution, it drags on until the end. Way too long! "

" I thought this book was very entertaining, but like most John Grisham books it was kind of like popcorn. It was fun to read, but that's about it. With that being said, it did bring up some things to think about (the death penalty) and is a really quick read. "

" First John Grisham I've read in a while. Liked it plenty. "

" I think I should stop reading John Grisham for a while. It's only my 3rd and I'm now considering law school! Another legal thriller masterpiece from Grisham. "
