The Last Juror

     Well I first want to apologize to however is reading this because I posted late. It get's hard to remember that you have a blog sometimes. This post is about my favorite author and the book I am reading for this quarter.  You are in for a little treat because I actually posted pictures!!! Hopefully pictures will make my blog more interesting for you and for me. So based on the picture you can predict that the book is called The Last Juror by John Grisham. Since I have not finished the book I got this short summary from wikipedia
In 1970, the first person narrator, a 23-year-old college drop-out by the name of Willie Traynor, comes to Clanton, Mississippi for an internship at the local newspaper, The Ford County Times. However the editor, Wilson Caudle, drives the newspaper into bankruptcy through years of mismanagement. Willie decides to buy the paper spontaneously for fifty thousand dollars, using money borrowed from his wealthy grandmother, and becomes the editor and owner of The Ford County Times. Months later, a member of the notorious and scandalous Padgitt family brutally rapes and kills a young widow named Rhoda Kassellaw. The murderer, Danny Padgitt, is put on trial. Before being found guilty, Danny threatens to kill each of the jury members, should they convict him. Although they do find him guilty, the jury cannot decide whether to send him to life in prison or to Death Row, so Danny is sentenced to life in prison at the Mississippi State Penitentiary.
After only nine years in prison, Danny Padgitt is paroled and returns to Clanton. Immediately, two jury members are killed and one is nearly killed by a bomb. Jury member and close friend of Willie, Miss Callie Ruffin, reveals that the recent victims were the jurors who were against sentencing Danny to Death Row......
As you can imagine from the title at some point what happens in the rest of the book upon stumbling on this I found out the ending(by accident)...
Moving On..
