Welcome to Litsy!

This novel gets a little bogged down during some of the courtroom stuff in the middle, and the resolution feels a bit slapdash, but overall it's a fun listen. It's cute how Connelly weaves the days leading up to the pandemic shutdown into the story. Gotta say, though, I got a jury summons recently and these courtroom dramas don't help me feel enthusiastic about possibly sitting on a jury. Why must cornerstones of democracy be so mind-numbing?

My Lincoln Lawyer marathon comes to an end (or at least a pause). Read my review of book six here: https://debbybrauer.org/#the-law-of-innocence-mickey-haller-6

I really like The Lincoln Lawyer series, and the most recent addition is a fast-paced story of Mickey Haller having to defend himself in a murder trial.

Usual quality crime mystery from one of the all-time greats. Personally as a lawyer I do not at all care for shows, movies or books about the law...I barely tolerate it in real life. So this story basically tracks a trial of a wrongly accused person. Not for me

While I liked this book where Mickey Haller has to defend himself against a murder charge when a body is found in his trunk, I was disappointed in the ending. If you depend on Goodreads for reviews and are interested in this book, read the 1 & 2 star reviews. They are mostly based on the fact that Haller expresses anti-Trump views. They aren‘t based on the writing, the characters, or the story, which, to me, makes those reviews bogus. #audiowalk

Only three hours left in this book — a few long walks should finish it up. The cannon is from a park I haven‘t been to in years but decided to go to today. #audiowalk

I decided to listen to The Law of Innocence on my walks today instead of Eight Perfect Murders; I‘m not sure why. I‘m used to being taken out of reality with most books, but there‘s a scene in this one where Bosch tells Mickey that there‘s a virus in Wuhan and Mickey hopes it‘ll stay contained. That reference brought me up short, remembering that time when we all had no idea how bad things would get. It was breezy along the water today. #audiowalk

Absolutely not what I should have been reading if I want to meet my end-of-month goals. But I couldn't resist any longer. I tore through this 400+ page book in a little under 24 hours. I just love the Lincoln Lawyer books. I haven't found any other legal thrillers out there that I like as well. In this one Mickey Haller finds himself defending. . . himself.

5 ⭐ for The Law of Innocence.

Such a great crime writer- either from police or defence lawyer perspective.
I‘m up to date now with Bosch and Haller series 😯

Another knockout, featuring Haller in his most high-stakes trial to date - because this time it's HIM being tried for murder after the body of a former client is found in his trunk. It was well paced and I loved the dynamics of his team as they all go to bat for him. Even Bosch makes a cameo, investigating on Haller's behalf.

My ONLY gripe is that this means I'm now caught up with all of Connelly's books and at the mercy of new releases 😭

On the night he celebrates a big win, defense attorney Mickey Haller is pulled over by police, who find the body of a former client in the trunk of his Lincoln....Great story

This took me a little bit to get into, but once I did, it was hard to put down. Haller‘s been accused of a crime he didn‘t commit and using his old flair and techniques, he sets out to prove his innocence. Another enjoyable read from the Lincoln Lawyer series.

⭐️⭐️⭐️💫

Great kindle offer today - 99p each for the series- including the newest one which I didn‘t have!

I love Connelly and everything he puts out- this book is no exception. A well-crafted tale that kept me guessing and trying to figure out who was the mastermind behind it all. While semi-anticlimactic at the end, it sets up the plot of the next story perfectly. Mickey Haller is one of my favorite characters in any book series, and I look forward to what‘s next for him and his crew.

Legal drama at its finest! Mickey Haller is now the defendant after a body is discovered in the trunk of his car. Riveting! Man I love these books and sooooo want a movie!

In this latest entry in the Lincoln Lawyer series, Micky Haller is facing the most important case of his life--defending himself after he's arrested for the murder of a former client. This raised the stakes and made for an incredibly tense read, and courtroom drama at its most gripping. I devoured this one in no time. Interestingly, Connelly sets the story against the backdrop of covid's initial appearance, adding an extra chill of foreshadowing.

The Law Of Innocence follows “the Lincoln Lawyer”, Mickey Haller, through his highest-stakes case yet. Connelly‘s clearly mastered the art of exposition. He manages to swiftly welcome in new readers with enough background to set them up to enjoy the novel, without drowning long-time fans in repetitive detail. I really enjoyed this one!

#118 of my year and can I just say that if a new Michael Connelly can‘t pull me out of a depression slump I don‘t know what would! Let‘s see what Haller & Bosch get up to, I love when they work together. Also I‘m listening to Paper Birds (acoustic) Ekko & Sidetrack, Ruth Royall and also Off The Table Ariana Grande & The Weekend I couldn‘t pick which one I loved more so I put both lol 💛

The tagged book is the one I want to read! https://crimereads.com/10-novels-you-should-read-this-november/
