    <body><![CDATA[Connelly's such a good writer that it's hard to fault him. The Lincoln Lawyer however seems a bit gimmicky and the courtroom explanations go on too long.  I realize that I'd probably give anyone else 4 stars for this book because it is fast paced, a good mystery w/ logical misdirection, and a plausible protagonist.  We do learn a secret about another Connelly character that I won't divulge.  I expect a lot from Connelly;I prefer the Bosch series and the one-offs.]]></body>
