Ford County - Stories

Author: John Grisham
Publisher: Doubleday, 2009
ISBN: 978-0-385-53245-7

I’ve always enjoyed John Grisham – he is what I call a “pleasant storyteller”. His stories don’t always pop, but they always have interesting characters, quirky incidents, small town life described perfectly from the Southern point of view.

Ford County allows us to meet many more characters in a short story collection. From the struggling, unhappy lawyer who runs into an unexpected windfall that will change his life to the three small town boys that venture into the big city of Memphis to help a friend out and wander way off the planned path, these stories bring these characters to life. You may not like all the people you meet here – but they will certainly interest.

I enjoyed the book and look forward to reading John’s next creation.

Welcome to the Dew Book Review Section!

Welcome to the Book Review Section at the Dew!

If you are a publishing house or author who has a book Southern in nature, or by a Southern writer, that you would like the Dew to review, please contact me at dewonthekudzu@gmail.com and I will provide you mailing information. (Wink wink, nudge nudge... the Dew has been getting a little lax about the Southern rule recently... just saying.)

The Dew tries it's best to have a review online as close to the publication date as possible, depending on the number of books waiting for review.

Please note, book reviews are the Dew's "business". The Dew does NOT post it's reviews on other sites. Please do not request that we do so. Thank you.

BUT, if I review your book, you may feel free to share it wherever you wish!
