Happy Hour Is for Amateurs: A Lost Decade in the World's Worst Profession
Philadelphia Lawyer
William Morrow
, 2008
Excellent storytelling
I hate to piggyback on another review, but Charles B Fehr really nails this book. Those who dislike it seem to be expecting a book about the legal profession, when in fact it's simply about him. He just happens to be stuck in the legal profession, but one could easily ...

Good textbook...
I'm finding my torts class difficult at times, so I'm glad to have this book for my text. It has a lot of examples to illustrate each concept, which is helping me grasp all the ideas pretty well. Also, the book is not nearly as expensive as a lot of textbooks, so I ...

Very handy reference
Read it, know it, live it. If things keep going they they have with people not caring about the Constitution, we won't have. You know the adage, ignore it and it will go away, it's very true for the constitution. The 2008 RNC is a standout example of this where the ...

Best one in series so far
I love how such a diverse group of people read these books. I totally disliked the 5th book because it was disjointed and made no sense, but others loved it. In this one, I felt Patterson tied everything together in the end with great stories through out. I loved ...

Just what I was looking for.....
In my studies for the LSAT, I found these great prep-tests - they are real former LSAT tests (without the experimental section). They helped in my preparation for the real thing. Now I'm just waiting to get my score!
