Personal Opinion
This book by John Grisham titled "The Firm" has struck me as a somewhat boring novel. When I chose the book I did not pay much attention to what was going on and I did not realize that it was fiction and mistery. These types of books make me anxious and therefore I have not found it interesting. On the other hand, the book was quite difficult to understand because of the vocabulary used by the writer. The novel is about lawyers, mob affairs and murders and I am not used to reading to reading those kinds of books. In conclusion, I would recomended the book to those who like mistery books.
