I would hate to be the screen writer tasked with making this book into an interesting movie. Luckily I can't imagine that anyone will ever have to worry about that.John Grisham may not be the best at character development, or painting imaginative word pictures, but he has always been able to tell an interesting story. Until now. "The Brethren" contains not one likeable character and a story line that will leave you wondering if he spent more than 15 minutes trying to come up with a plot or if he just made it up as he went along.If this book were not written by John Grisham it would never have been published. Let's hope that Mr. Grisham takes a little more time in developing his next book and does not simply rely on his reputation to sell books.
