Another cracking adventure with Theo. Have really engaged with the characters and story.Shall definitely be encouraging my thirteen year old to read as although accessible to all ages I feel it really appeals to young readers.

I have really enjoyed John Grisham's foray into fiction for older children/young adults. Theodore Boone is as attractive a character as any of those gracing his adult books, and the stories surrounding him are intriguing and enjoyable.
In this one, developers are trying to build a bypass around the town. Naturally, there are advantages to this bypass, just as there are disadvantages but, in Theo's opinion, the disadvantages outweigh the good points. He and several of his friends rise up to support those that they perceive to be the victims; but will they win?
A quick, but nevertheless enjoyable, read.

I read one third of this book and was loathe to put it down. The style of writing is so different, and the age of "the lawyer". Can't wait for the next one to be published!

An amazing thriller by John Grisham. And for people who said he writes basic storylines they are wrong. This book is exciting from beginning to end and leaves cliffhangers all the way through which just wants to make you read on.
Recommended for 9+ but adults may find it easy.
WARNING: Do not read this book until you have read the first two - it tells you what happens.

Nice easy holiday book that can be appreciated by young and old. Bit of an abrupt ending though. Wonder if Theo will ever make it to the big screen?
