The Whistler

IMHO, not one of his best. Started out w good premise but it lost me...

I enjoyed the book but it just was not very suspenseful or had only 1 real “plot twist” that really surprised me. I read the audio book and the reader was very good. Reading Game: count how many unique BURNER CELL PHONES are mentioned.

Reading again thanks to Aniah encouraging me to just ditch the other book I was stuck on. I really liked this one, started slower than the other Grisham books I've read and I never really got super connected to the characters but it was definitely entertaining and exciting! Worth the read.

Age range: 16+
Not really any concerning content, violence all happens off screen. Maybe too boring for younger readers?

Wanted to give this 2.5 stars but forgot Goodreads doesn???t do half stars. Not a terrible book but also not super interesting. Repetitive at times.

Well... this is a quick read, and as always with Grisham it is pretty smooth. The story is actually interesting, but the book feels rushed. Characters don't have much depth and the last part of the book is excessively condensed. I'm left with the feeling that the author either got bored with the story or had a deadline to meet, so he cut the story short and moved on.
