This would be a great book but it takes forever to complete the info on a crime. Characters were great and the crimes of the convicted and people running the street that are the real villians. Who do we try to save first?

This is my new favorite book. I finished this 370 page book in 3 days. I couldn’t put it down. The ending was amazing and I have never been more sad to finish a book. I caught myself soaking up every single word for the last 100 pages…

Not my favorite Grisham novel...very slow until about 2/3 of the way into the book.

I. Loved. This. Book. It tells the story of a public defender, Cullen Post, who suffers a breakdown and leaves the practice of law for seminary. He then becomes a part of Guardian Ministries, fighting for the exoneration of wrongful…

3 1/2 stars. This was a not too bad Grisham legal thriller. Cullen Post is a lawyer and a minister, working for the Guardian Ministries trying to get innocent people out of prison. There are two cases that are profiled in this book and…

John Grisham’s The Guardians is a book that follows “innocence” lawyer, Cullen Post, who tries to free innocent men from prison. This book started off promising and overall kept its stature. While it did have a few slow and boring parts,…

An incredibly fascinating story. Entirely, completely thorough but not too slow at all.

This is one of Grisham's didactic projects, telling us all about the workings of an Innocence Project. It details the pitfalls and triumphs of getting innocent prisoners out of jail. Grisham uses the first person point of view well to good…

A classic Grisham novel - well written, captivating and hard-to-put-down. Use of the first-person was at first a deterrent for me, but I warmed before the 5th chapter and was hooked - regardless - by the 2nd.

This is a very slow moving Grisham novel, flat characters, plodding storyline. His last few books have been very low quality and great disappointments. Go back to someof his first books which had depth, character development, action,…

An excellent picture of the Justice system as seen in the U.S. So many tragic outcomes for those who are not part of the controlling elite. Incidentally, we have just seen this from the President who was able to free his pal Stone. No…

I have always enjoyed reading John Grishams books which include his non lawyer stories. I found this book a quick & easy read with an interesting story line, character development--so much so I read it over two evenings. The Guardians is…

I always look forward to a John Grisham book, but unfortunately none of the new ones come anywhere near his early novels. Just couldn’t get interested in this, very disappointing.

My first read of John Grisham. Found it long and a little to much detail in parts. It was a good story line but also had to many charters for my liking. L Gibson March 9 2020

This book moved very slowly and was mostly boring and predictable. I did finish it, but had to take it in small chunks.

Generally find Grisham's novels much more interesting than this one. Rather boring and certainly not worth the "wait" time to read it!

Loved it, very emotional at the end. I want to donate to innocence groups now.
