My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A very interesting book. Usually I find management books a drag but the ideas and anecdotes shared by the founder of PayPal makes this interesting.

The Rogue Lawyer

Rogue LawyerRogue Lawyer by John Grisham
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Sebastian Rudd is a lawyer who will not let truth come in the way of justice. This is how the book is advertised and its an interesting mix of plots with Rudd being the central character in each. An engaging quick read, not Grisham's best but it does have its page turning moments.

The rooster bar

John Grisham, Fiction

The Rooster BarThe Rooster Bar by John Grisham
My rating: 1 of 5 stars

Grisham uses the educational loan crisis in US as an example to create a plot where 3 friends start practicing law without actually graduating. Hoodwinking the system is the primary plot. Though it sounds interesting it's not like usual Grisham novels. It needed efforts to finish this one off
