The Exchange ~ The Firm #2 (by John Grisham)

I was so looking forward to reading The Exchange since it was a sequel to The Firm. I have to say, The Firm is the only book I’ve ever read that I actually skipped to the back pages just to see if the primary character was still alive. I didn’t want to see what happened, I just needed to see if he made it through the craziness that coursed through the pages. So I was rather disappointed to discover that The Exchange did not have me flipping through the pages quickly. You could actually read this as a standalone because it draws very little from Mitch McDeere’s time in the earlier book. I have enjoyed Grisham’s courtroom drama books in particular. This is definitely not part of that genre. It is really more of a spy thriller and that not is one I enjoy reading.

The Exchange was just an okay read. I wanted more from Mitch and it just didn’t flow from the previous book. I am sad to be disappointed in this read. But I’ll definitely be back for future books by John Grisham.
