Critical Reaction - Book Review
When I first started "Critical Reaction" by Todd M. Johnson, I couldn't picture the places he was trying to describe and thought, "Ah man, I've chosen a dud." But, another chapter or two and I found myself really enjoying this book. The character exposition could have been a little deeper (I didn't find myself loving or hating anyone the way I usually do in books) but, nonetheless, I managed to accidentally read for a couple of hours before putting this courtroom fiction down. The best parts of this novel were all in the courtroom. Mr. Johnson does a great job of painting the drama associated with such a place. I just wish he had carried it over into the other parts of the story.
This book was good but not great.
BTW, I was given a copy of this book free in exchange for an honest review.
