Grisham sold-out

Revisado: 07-08-24

1 hour is all I could handle of Whoopi Goldberg. Who the heck made the decision to have this imbecile narrate this book. Totally ruined a good series

So glad this was free

Horrible woke crap. This selection isn't even good as a sleep-aid. Cringy and poorly performed.

Woke to point of sympathizing with a pedophile

Revisado: 04-25-22

Low-life oxygen thief meets gullible pedophile. The author goes to painful lengths to legitimize a worthless literature degree and poetry in general. As if that wasn't bad enough, she goes on to try and gain sympathy and understanding for a predator pedophile embedded in boarding school.

Wonderful persistence

Great account of the effort behind mankind's greatest acheivements and one man's tenacity. A testament to self confidence.

Great application

Revisado: 01-13-18

There are no new world-shaking leadership techniques here, only really well described and applied one. This is an excellent follow-up to Kotter's "Leading Change". Every leader, regardless of rank in the organization should read "Extreme Ownership". Great book!

Worth the Wait

Revisado: 10-27-17

Dan Brown does not disappoint. This is the one work of fiction that will, some day, be difficult to distinguish from fact.

Fun Story Wasted

Revisado: 09-24-15

What did you like best about Lafitte's Treasure? What did you like least?

The plot was interesting enough to keep me listening. The narration was horribly distracting.

What do you think your next listen will be?

Not sure; I may need to re-listen to Dan Brown or Steve Berry.

What didn’t you like about A. T. Al Benelli’s performance?

The narrator made the two protagonists sound like a couple of imbeciles. I kept expecting Eddie to say "Tell me 'bout the rabbits, George", and the female protagonist sounded like a really bad impersonation of a 7 year girl that's never left the house. The cadence was more suited for a first grade teacher reading Curious George to her class.

Did Lafitte's Treasure inspire you to do anything?

Yes, to never again buy Corso book.

Any additional comments?

The story was interesting enough; Dan Brown would've had a field day with this plot, but this story seemed rushed and almost insultingly simple. There are also blatant inconsistencies and highly improbable legal interpretations that make the story hard to swallow.

Horrible Excuse for a John Grisham Novel

Revisado: 11-10-14

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

Someone who doesn't mind wasting a credit

Has Gray Mountain turned you off from other books in this genre?

No, not at all, but I hope this isn't the direction John Grisham is taking.

What three words best describe Catherine Taber’s performance?

First Grade teacher

What character would you cut from Gray Mountain?

All of them; none had anything to contribute to the story.

Any additional comments?

Unlike other John Grisham novels, this one came short on every point. It took over 23 chapters to develop the feeble plot and failed to deliver on it. No closure, it's as though they forgot to print the last chapters. My hope is that this is some lame ploy by the publishers to launch a series. I, for one, am not impressed.
