This is the second book I have read by John Grisham. I thought he only wrote laywer thrillers but I was mistaken. I enjoyed the book a lot but I found it very hard to believe that Luke was only seven years old. I have 2 great grandsons that are almost 6 and I can't believe that they would be thinking or doing all the things that Luke did. Not even in a year from now! Luke was sitting at he table one night eating his supper and someone mentioned Tally and he thought he was so in love with her he couldn't even eat. Come on! At seven years old????? I did feel like I really got to know the rest of the characters and the struggles they all went through. I would recommend it as a good read.
