Ford County Stories

FORD COUNTY STORIES

John Grisham

I finished this book today, and as I usually do, I thought I would post a review.  Not about the story, or stories in this case, but just my overall feeling about the book.  It has a quote on the cover by Pat Conroy saying "Ford County is the best writing John Grisham has ever done."  I would agree with that.  This is a book of short stories and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.  Every story held my interest, and there was enough variety that I just wanted to keep reading.  What I consider really good reads are few and far between.  There was a novel before this one that I went 150 pages into and just could not get into it.  I HIGHLY recommend this novel if you like quality fiction.  I have a respect for John Grisham that I didn't have before...even though I've liked many of his novels.
