The Broker by John Grisham
John Grisham is prolific writer. He produces quality material regularly and is a valuable and entertaining writer. However, Grisham’s novel, The Broker, falls short. I believe this book suffers from what I call writer’s fatigue, where Grisham has fallen victim to too much writing.
The story is crisp and …

Lisey’s Story by Stephen King
Stephen King’s latest novel is the story of the widow of a writer and her journey towards learning to be Lisey, and not just “Scott’s wife” While King’s sense of the macabre is very much present, this is not a really gruesome book like “Pet Semetary” or “Carrie.” It …

“Runelight” is Joanne Harris’ second novel for young people, and the sequel to her famous first book for children, “Runemarks.” In my opinion, this novel proves that Harris is as skilled in the writing of children’s books as she is in the writing of novels for adults.
