This started out promising, but for a book dedicated to the fall of Gilead, it spent very little time on the actual fall. It's almost like they just ran out of space, so they brought everything to a close as quickly as possible.

‘Less is always more when it comes to the defense.’ Times are tough for Mickey Haller, the lawyer we first met in ‘The Lincoln Lawyer’. While crime continues, few clients seem to have money to pay lawyers. So, in order to make a living, Mickey has moved on to one of the few growth areas in contemporary law: foreclosure defence. For four or five thousand dollars a case, Mickey can help people stay in their homes for a little longer. Things seem to be going comparatively smoothly for Mickey, working out of the back of his Lincoln, until his first foreclosure client, Lisa Trammel, is charged with the murder of Mitchell Durant, the banker who held her mortgage. Lisa Trammel has lost her job as a teacher. Her husband has already left, leaving her with a young son and a massive mortgage. But there’s another side to Lisa, and while Mickey is committed to representing her, he doesn’t have to like her. What he does have to do is try to cast enough doubt to achieve a not guilty verdict. This search leads him into dangerous territory where he also discovers that organized crime is part of the mortgage business. The first half of the novel concerns the investigation and the second half the trial. There are a number of interesting characters and, of course, at least one twist in the tale. The trial has its own suspense and, while it’s clear that the process is about winning rather than truth, Mickey’s thinking about the cost, and the future. My first Michael Connelly novel was ‘The Lincoln Lawyer’ and I’m a Mickey Haller fan. This novel had me turning the pages, keen to find out how the case would end. While the story held my attention throughout, I have mixed feelings about aspects of it. I enjoyed the courtroom suspense; I’m interested in Mickey Haller’s personal angst about integrity, but less interested in some aspects of his increasingly convoluted personal life. That said, I’ll be looking for the next Haller book because I’m keen to see what will happen next. ‘In the courtroom there are three things for the lawyer to always consider: the knowns, the known unknowns and the unknown unknowns’ Jennifer Cameron-Smith

Very interesting and informative, if a bit dated. I consult it often to get differing definitions in my ongoing struggle to learn French!

I had a hard time with this book because it was very well written and I like Margaret Atwood a lot. That being said, I was bored through most of the book.

God, what a piece of trash. Here we have a "memoir" of what could be a really hilarious life - this girl's parents are total hippies who transfer their family to the boonies of Colorado. This girl is a totally by-the-books, cardigan-wearing, pro-establishment priss. It could be a hilarious black sheep of the family story. Instead, we get to listen to her drone about her love of England and the royal family, and travel through her time abroad being a drunken dumbass American exchange student. The Buckingham Palace moves her to tears, she goes to visit Diana's grave, and hobknobs with some spoiled rich kids. YAWN. As a sidenote, she lamets the fact that she can't find love. Well here's an idea - stop sleeping with every dude you meet who has a British accent! I have no sympathy for this girl, and I hope she gets hit by a double decker someday soon.

This book is terrifying.

a graphic novel acting like literature is like a dog wearing a dress shirt and applying for a job at the bank, which is to say it's behavior we should encourage

This book is an addictingly well-put together history of blood transfusion research in the 17th Century. Sound like a boring topic? It's not. It's about life and death, and of course, blood and justice. It's about the way science moves forward, the cost of doing so, and it's got rivalry and interpersonal drama galore. Lots and lots of fascination.

Interesting memoir from kidnapped girl. While graphic at times, it really provides insight into mind control by pedophile. Jaycee is doing amazingly well but she will never be able to have a "normal" life. Hope her daughters can recover. It's really a sad story despite her ability to recover. It's also scarry that there are more people out there like this than we can believe and that the police could have saved her much sooner if they had done their jobs. Never be afraid to speak up if you see something suspicious!!!!
