The Lincoln Lawyer

by Michael Connelly

Just finished this--it reminded me of my first infatuation with the Grisham books, which we read religiously for one summer and annually every February after that.  For a long time, the new Grisham novel was Dave's Valentine's Day present, since that's right when they were released. : )  But I digress . . .

I really liked this one!  Loved the character and tone of Mickey Haller and the fly-by-the-seat-of-his-pants type of work that he does.  Loved the story line, loved the suspense, loved that he looked dowdy in his "best suit," loved that he had the con with the photographer....clever, clever.

And if that wasn't enough for a perfect almost-summer read, it's a movie with my all-time dreamboat, Matthew McConaughey!?!  Say no more.
