I like this series, its interesting and different from my normal read. Its legal and crime based but you dont have to be a lawyer to get it. i also really like the fast pace that Grisham writes these books in.

This book lacked the action I read these types of books for, but it was still riveting enough that I finished it even though I was on holiday and I had to prioritise the books I wanted to read.

Bleh 

I have had this book on the shelf for a long time, and out of a desire for a quick and entertaining read I finally picked it up. For the record I have never read any of Grisham's "adult" novels, so I have no basis for comparison there.
I did entertainment I hoped for, from what is largely a uncomplicated plot line. I imagine myself really enjoying this at the age of 11 or 12, and in that respect would recommend it.

This book is about as good as the first one. I don't dislike the books, but there is a lot that could be improved. Strangely, Theo seems the most believable when he is in animal court.

Better than the last one but not as good as his earlier books.

Solid YA fare ala Grisham.

По-скоро разказ, отколкото роман. Нещо като "Къде си, Аляска", но без драмата.

The second book in the Theodore Boone series.

Theodore's friend April is stuck in a ruthless battle between her parents divorce.

One night though, she ends up missing, from her home, having talked to Theo only hours before hand, and now Theo and his friends are scrambling to find her, and hoping against hope that she's alive and well.

THOUGHTS:

This was a good book.
Honestly, I thought for sure that this book would have something to do with the murder trial that was the whole idea of three last book, but the only mention of it, is on the last page, and is just that, nothing more than a brief mention.
.... not sure if that hurt the book for me or not.... lol.

Anyways, its still worth a read in any case!
