The Client by John Grisham
Pgs.1-127

The book is very interesting. I was a little intimidated at first due to the amount of pages,but as the libarian said "Once you get into the book you'll fly right through it". My first impresions on the book so fas are great. The book immedently grasped my attention due to the character's attitude. The young boy named "Mark Sway" is an young boy with many burdens on his hands. His life so far isnt the ordanary "childhood" you expect a kid his age should have.He smokes, and uses foul language alot. He had an abusive father that didnt care, and a mother that was never home, so you cant blame him for not having a good rolemodle. All mark looks forward too is taking care of his mother and little brother Ricky.I feel that i can relate in some was to his attitude of the so called street life. He reminds of a kid that lived a cupple houses away. The most thing that attracts me to this book is that although he has many flaws, he still takes the iniative to take care of what little family he has.
