Representaion As Books The Rooster Bar
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.

This wasn't quite 4 stars, but I'll round up for the beginning and the ending. I've enjoyed Grisham novels, mostly his legal thrillers. I liked the humor, the dialogue, and the characters the most in this one. The hook in the beginning was effective and pulled me right in. I kept thinking this was the best Grisham novel I've read in a while. That feeling lasted for the first third of this book. That is where the story deviates from the hook and becomes about something entirely different. For me,This book started very well for me. I found it interesting and fun at the beginning, but when I was almost in the middle of the book, I began to feel bored and thought the author was going the wrong way. From then on, I dragged myself through the reading until I finished this book with great difficulty. It's a pity because I find that John Grisham wrote good entertaining books.
Very disappointing Horrible unlikable idiotic criminal main characters; barely fleshed out plot; I had to force myself to finish it. I cannot believe John Grisham wrote this. Total waste of time (and money!).
I like John Grisham books. They are like going to your favorite diner or regular restaurant, you know what you are going to get, its familiar and comforting. I describe these meals as pleasant, food has the same taste, same waiter/waitress. Generally the only time that meal isnt good is when you decide to try something else and its not as good, you leave feeling unsatisfied and fulfilled.Grishams book, Rooster Bar left me unfulfilled. I finished it and two things came to mind, glad I got it from

Grisham's writing never disappoints! The Rooster Bar is atmospheric, deep, well-detailed and gripping. I feel though like I'll soon be in the same boat as the main characters, as I'll have to borrow at least $70,000 in student loans for law school in the next few years. Scary as hell! This book is impressive though, and it reminded me of the early 2000's Canadian film The Last Casino, with young, naive students enchanted and later horrified by the prospect of money and the ways in which a scam
How sad is it that Mr Grisham has fallen so far that he can't even identify the interesting elements in his own stories anymore? (Warning, this review contains spoilers)(view spoiler)[I was so excited at the start of this novel because it felt like old school John Grisham. We are presented with four student friends who have all been tricked into taking out massive student loans for a law degree from a joke of a law school that will end up leaving them jobless and over a quarter of a million in
