I love his brother Kevin Grisham. Have you read The Rural Juror and its sequel, Urban Fervor?
One of my favorite authors. The books set in Ford County are my absolute favorite.
He is one of the most prolific authors of all time. Whoopi’s narration of his audio book sounded amazing. Excellent segment and he has a great sense of humor🩷
John Grisholm is a boss. Excellent writer and human

Who is John Grisholm?
John Grisham is an amazing author. I love his writing. The fact that Whoopi narrates the Audible version of this book makes it very special!

Bring it on.
John Grisham had everyone at the table and in the audience laughing. He really found his passion. Fifty books and counting John, you are fantastic.
John Grisham, if you keep writing, I'll keep reading your books!
I’ve had a huge crush on this man since reading ‘Time To Kill’…

Oh my Take the time to read Grisham
He is naturally funny
Thank You for letting The Queen Whoopi herself narrate. Love that so much!! Love me some Whoopi!! 😍💜
I like some of his popular books. But 50 books! He's a force of nature ❤
one of my fav authors
We love john Grisham
I love listening to books, it’s well worth it, for Audio books to stay in style. I’m listening to Whoopi’s Bit’s and Pieces right now. Listening to her tell her story about her life growing up and the close relationship she had with her brother and her mom to me feels like the next best thing to meeting her in person and having an iced tea together. No standing in line with others for a few brief moments to talk with her, pros for that is you do get back and forth and her responding, other than that you really feel closer with the Author when they tell you their story, and it’s hands free which makes it possible for you to actually do more than one thing at a time, moving, learning and expanding your world are keys to a good life. I’m enjoying your book so far Whoopi, thank you for telling us, so we can know you better. To know you opens up the chance to love you. 🥰
I’m listening to the audible book now and it’s really good. John Grisham is such a wonderful storyteller.
I have read ALL of his books. Some were even made into movies. Very good movies. I love Mr Grisham's accent, but I ❤his books more. All are so so, so, so good! ♥️
MY FAVORITE WRITER, JOHN GRISHAM ❤️ 💙 😊
His books are great. The first one I read was The Chamber, and it remains one of my all-time favorites.
Love John Grisham since his first book, he is so good.
My favorite John Grisham book is and probably always will be "A Time To Kill" the simply humanistic understanding of an eye for an eye, or for every action, there Is a reaction!!

Stop trying to sound smart. We all know that you can't read.
John is so incredibly funny. I’ve been reading him for 35 years in the beginning some of the books he was talking about I would buy when they came out in February or early March and then lock them in the suitcase so that they would be there for my trip, we always have to go on a business trip to specific organization every year and you would swear at that time. Michael Crichton was also still alive and was riding incredible stuff too and it’s almost like when you were waiting to board on the airplane. It was the Creighton side or the Grisham side. of the plane because most of us all had the book from one of the authors in our hands for the flight. I can remember 10 years of that I’m drawing a blank on the book that John wrote about the death penalty and trying to beat it. And a friend of my exes wanted to read it and I said as soon as I’m done with it And I remember being so tense about what they make it to the end that I must’ve read 18 hours a day until I finished it. When I handed it to my friend, he goes so he didn’t have to finish it because that fast because of me, I said no wait till you get into it you’ll you’ll stop what you’re doing and you won’t be able to stop until you’ve turned every page and you know the answer he and my ex met at another reading and he returned the book to me with Post-it note inside that said you were 100% correct. I started it on Friday night and I was gone for the weekend..
I will have to wait t I'll the audio comes to the Baraboo Library!!!
I love John Grisham and Stephen King's books.
Wow. What charming, witty, and nice man he seems to be! I read and loved his first three books and haven’t read any since, but this is the first interview of his I’ve seen. It was a lovely respite from political news that I ingest every day!
Years ago we where at a play where he was mention for a book with the group we was with ...this was in 82 or 83 ..it was pn a noval Texas i belive 😮

I’m a big fan of John Grisham.
Personally my favorite was The Pelican Brief.
I've just finished reading The Firm and then watched the movie. Book is much better!
This may not be the best time for such a joke, if there ever is one.
Love the pelican brief
🗣️Great author John Grisham! 📖
👏
He was talking about his book that had assassinations of Supreme Court justices. He wasn't laughing about killing someone. That book is among his first novels. I hate how people are so quick to be offended these days. Throw his books out. Don't read him. Your choice, but stop being so judgy. Grisham isn't the best writer around, but he is enjoyable.

But in the context they were talking about the current court, how 'bad it is', and that he should write another one like it. But go on.

so, did grisham corect himself and say he didnt mean to kill the judges only to write the next book??? i am confused

How is slavery back with a vengeance today?? 3:16
Nice to see someone not being PC.
They cut him off ,don’t talk about the Supreme Court
Have read almost all of the Grisham books but will not read another one. His comment about writing another book with Supreme Court justices being killed is unacceptable.
These women are freaking
Enslaved, not slaves
I remember the first time John Grisham publicly defended his pedopals, long before #metoo.
Joking about assassination is wrong. These people are just wrong.

@@Shea2432 you know absolutely NOTHING about me. I CAN judge Grisham on what he just said, it is a threat. If someone even INSINUATED this onto YOU, or YOUR FAMILY, what would you do?
Never read his books but think he's HOT.
He said he wanted to kill the judges! 😮
Sunny's ancestors owned slaves.
Quantity is not quality. Grisham books are like the NCIS of novels.
Nope.
The Supreme court dis not elect Bush in 2000, the Constitution did.

No more Grisham in my house. Insinuating the death of anyone isn't funny.

John Grisham is a trash writer
People like this a creepy. If we're lucky maybe John Grisham will be the one that doesn't wake up some morning.
