Reviews with the most likes.
I really enjoyed this book. The majority of the action takes place in Bologna, Italy and involves walking around the city.
This is a pretty good story, but (a) the writing is not great and (b) it was apparently an excuse for Grisham to spend a lot of time in Italy eating and drinking. If you're into all things Italian, you might like it
