This was the last book that I was able to read for fun before my grad school classes started. I actually finished it back in September but things have been so crazy I havn't even had the time to update this list.

This was one of the best Grisham books that I have read. It is one of his earlier ones and for the most part I prefer those. This one was so layered in its story, it wasn't just the story of a mad on death row but also that of southern verses northern culture, the idea of family, racial tensions, the ethical issues of the death penalty and perceptions of the past.
