“This novel was heart warming, funny, intriging, great story ........”
“Amazing book it is ! ... It was fun to put urself in the shoes of a 7 year old and then see the world around you...Really enjoyed it.”
“i dont find it really exciting compared to other grisham stories...”
“I got cotton-picking tired of picking cotton. Not one I would ever want to read twice.”
“This book was different for both Grisham and myself. As a long time fan, I picked thid book based soley on Grisham being the author and was delighted to see that he was able to write about other areas. but I was disappointed that it wasn't a real page turner. I found myself waiting for the book to actually start. I have to say I enjoy the suspense and drama of his other work. ”
“Most of John Grisham's novels, with their legal twists and turns, tend to rush to their conclusion leaving you breathless. A Painted House is more like a quiet Sunday dinner on the farm... slow, measured pacing that leaves you well satisfied when it's over. Given its story of a the harvest season on a small Arkansas cotton farm, that analogy is particularly apt.”
“True Arkansas...what a great book. My mom was growing up the same time period this book was set in, and she says it's very realistic. Looved this one.”
