Hmmm... so yes, I should say John Grisham did intrigue me :) I enjoyed his book although the ending wasn't so much of a "thriller". I think that's the case for many books that I've read. Somehow the book is always so good until the last couple of chapters... It all gets 'usual'. I wonder why. Is it that towards the end, writers run out of ideas? But maybe it's also a way of showing that not all books/stories need to have "perfect" or "ideal" ending. Whatever it is, 'The Associate' did make me
not wanna do law. Haha... You might say that the book is a novel but then it could be partly true too. I believe that to be able to write well, one needs to have the inspiration. And so, where do writers get insipiration from? And I suppose it's from the everyday life. Even J.K Rowling was inspired to writing Harry Potter while she was on the train.
On the train... How did those kind of ideas come up, we as readers often question.
Ah well... here's the cover for 'The Associate' incase you wanna read and make sure what I just said about the ending was wrong. Haha
Anyway, I have picked up another unread book from my collection "What the dog saw" by Malcolm Gladwell. Well, one of my cousins gave it to me after knowing that I took sociology once before and he mentioned it was a 'must read'. And yes, have to admit, the way Malcolm looks at things is pretty interesting. He did mention that we shouldn't judge a story/article just by the way we feel towards it. It's pretty obvious that we can't be agreeing with everything a person thinks or feels. But perhaps, we could try to look at it like the author just did :)
Peace xD
P.S. tell you more about the book when I finish reading it & yes, The Associate will be in cinemas this awesome year of 2010 !
