The Theodore Boone books may not be as fast-paced as Grisham's adult thrillers, but they're fairly easy to read, and if someone has set their mind on legal thrillers and courtroom drama, this is certainly a good choice. Maybe even reluctant readers can be convinced to give the Boone novels a try.
Rai’s book was one of the first hit novels that described growing up in two different cultures. In an easy-going way - the book’s an easy read - he gives us an angry teenager who wants to map out his own life. And unusually, arranged marriage is shown from the man’s point of view rather than the woman’s. This is a rapid read on a serious topic.
