Why I chose to read A Time to Kill

 

I have just started reading A Time to Kill by John Grisham.  I have only read one chapter so far, but the book is already intense.  It starts with a ten year old girl who has been abducted and is being beaten, but she escapes and is found and returned home at the end of the chapter.  I am very intrigued to continue and find out what will happen to the men who did this.

I chose to read this book because I have read the Theodore Boone series.  This is also by John Grisham, but these books are intended for kids in middle school, and that is when I read these books.  I wanted to read some of his adult books and I was recommended this book.  I am glad I started reading it because it is very good so far and I think I will read more books by John Grisham in the future.

  1. I would agree with you on saying that the first chapter is intense. kidnapping and escaping is a big thing. If that is the beginning then this book is most likely going to have a lot of action. I hope you continue to like the book.

  2. That sounds pretty crazy and fun to read, I enjoy action books, although they are not chock full of metaphors they make up for it by having awesome moments. I have heard that book is really really good, maybe I will give it a go some time

  3. I was thrilled with the first paragraph. I want to read more action books like this one it sounds very,very good. Since most books I read are slow, I would love to read more books by this author. Thanks!
