Review
I read only the first 221 pages of this book… In the beginning I quite liked it but midway through I started getting bored and ended up giving up (which I rarely do). I felt it wasn’t really worth the time.
As I didn’t finish the book I am not going to write the summary (that’s obvious!) and not going to comment on the books writing style and all.
I would just like to say that if you want to read it… read it at your own risk!
 
The Opening Line: “I am a lawyer, and I am in prison. It’s a long story. ”
 
Final Thoughts: Not worth the time.

I love reading your comments, so please go ahead…
