Review ebook The Firm

This was the first novel I’ve read of John Grisham and it inspired some of the most important decisions of my life. It affected me so much that it irrevocable changed my life for all eternity. (I’m probably exaggerating but most of it’s true.)

First of all, because of this book, I took up Accounting as my major in college. This book painted a very exciting picture of how an accountant’s life could be very exciting. It showed how he could steal from the Mob and get away with it. Who wouldn’t want This was the first novel I’ve read of John Grisham and it inspired some of the most important decisions of my life. It affected me so much that it irrevocable changed my life for all eternity. (I’m probably exaggerating but most of it’s true.)

First of all, because of this book, I took up Accounting as my major in college. This book painted a very exciting picture of how an accountant’s life could be very exciting. It showed how he could steal from the Mob and get away with it. Who wouldn’t want that kind of exciting life? You should realize that I read this book when I was in high school, and yes I knew it was fiction, but I was young and gullible. I didn’t know what I wanted to do with my life and I read this book. It made an quite an impression on me. Of course, after 4 years in college and about to graduate and become a CPA, I’ve realized that being an accountant is not all that exciting after. Like seriously. It’s not. Don’t be an accountant. You’ll die of absolute boredom.

Second, it cemented my desire to be a lawyer. Even when I was younger, I already wanted to be a lawyer, but was unsure on what pre-law course to take (hence, the accountancy major). I was argumentative opinionated and I had a domineering and arrogant personality. Perfect lawyer material right? So this book is the reason why I’ll go to law school after college.

Oh my god I just realized that this review has totally gone nuts. This is no longer a review but a life story. Omfg I’m so sorry. To anyone who’s reading this, I’m amazed that you have gone this far. But I’m quite sure nobody will be reading this so I’m gonna say what I want to say. Read this friggin book. It’s awesome. And it might change your life as it has changed mine. …more
