Description

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • John Grisham’s newest legal thriller takes you inside a law firm that’s on shaky ground.

Mark, Todd, and Zola came to law school to change the world, to make it a better place. But now, as third-year students, these close friends realize they have been duped. They all borrowed heavily to attend a third-tier, for-profit law school so mediocre that its graduates rarely pass the bar exam, let alone get good jobs. And when they learn that their school is one of a chain owned by a shady New York hedge-fund operator who also happens to own a bank specializing in student loans, the three know they have been caught up in The Great Law School Scam.

But maybe there's a way out. Maybe there’s a way to escape their crushing debt, expose the bank and the scam, and make a few bucks in the process. But to do so, they would first have to quit school. And leaving law school a few short months before graduation would be completely crazy, right?  Well, yes and no ...

Pull up a stool, grab a cold one, and get ready to spend some time at The Rooster Bar.

Don’t miss John Grisham’s new book, THE EXCHANGE: AFTER THE FIRM!

    It was slow to develop, but I was ultimately engaged and enjoyed the ending.

    There isn’t one character you care about in this book. They are one dimensional at best. Instead of reading this, consider taking a shower or going for a walk instead. Boring read.
  • Rooster was overcooked

    Dull and felt like writing to fill pages rather than tell a good story. Not gripping or engaging in a normal Grisham fashion.
  • Rooster Bar cackles

    I just don’t like these characters. None of them really. An interesting point made was and the characters were crude tools to that end. But I’m a fantasy guy at heart so what do I know.
  • Boring

    I am a great follower of John Grisham’s work but I do not like this book at all. Could not make myself read it all the way to the end.
