The Appeal

I've been pretty sad all day about Heath Ledger. Really, it's weird how much his death has affected me. BUT. I received some happy news today ... John Grisham has a new book! This one is available January 29th. It's another lawyer novel. You can read the first chapter here.


Grisham is my favorite author. I've read every book he's written. Here are my top three favorites:

1. The Testament
2. The Partner
3. The Street Lawyer

I literally cannot put his books down until I finish them. (Tim, I think I might be feeling a touch of the flu coming on. It will probably hit sometime in the middle of next week.) There are very few authors whose writing captivates me like Grisham's does. Plus, they make pretty good movies.
