Loving the Flashbacks: The siblings have almost died twice already wow!

Everything is out in the open! People are doing suicide. Darby Is flying to Caribbean. I can't imagine what could be left to say in the last pages of this book, pretty crazy stuff happened in this last chapter.

The F*! More things happened in the last 5 pages then the last 16 pages (more then that actually) or at least that's what it felt. We finally meet Victor Mattiece and Matt Barr get's senselessly murdered at the end wow!

A longer chapter than usual (16 pages)
with Dabby and Gray Grantham (a Journalist for Washington Post) asking alot of students whether they recognize a photo of someone from a law firm.
Over all not all that boring, but I still wish it had been way shorter, so I could get to the more interesting parts of the story, hopefully.

Chapter 29 was SO boring! It was all exposition dump about how the oil companies work in Louisianas and the power struggles between Victor Mattiece and The Green Fond
The only reason for this even being in the book, is to show how powerful Victor Mattiece is and why this book is called The Pelican Brief, since The Green Fond was trying to protect the Brown Pelicans from becoming extinct.

Just say it in one sentence!

From almost 86 pages of not caring if this book falls under a car, I have to pinch myself every time I look at the clock and hours go by!
From being one of my most hated activities in months to loving every second. I don't trust this book to be this good for very long, from all the agonising hours of boredom I had to endure to get to this place of goodness, this just can't last.

Shit hit the fan!
Thomes Callahan is dead!
After so long....
This is suddenly getting very explosive (pun intended).

Finally this book is getting interesting! From agonisingly boring long juristicall blabber, to now finally The president's second hand man getting the Pelican Brief, I caught myself not wanting to stop reading last night and that is a big surprise since I've really hated this book, only just hanging on because my school told me to, but god damn the reveal was exciting, I can't wait for the next chapter.

I've read this two times already
years ago,
but since I still haven't bought any of the other Volumes,
I'm reading it again.
I remember really likeing it.

Since vol. 1 of the manga ended here, I'm going to take a break and wait untill vol 2 comes out, since I'm reading them at the same time, I've loved what I've read so far though and if it doesn't come out soon I might just read more of the book.

One of the best DC Graphic Novels I've read so far.

Amazing story so far

I might need to restart reading this, since I don't really remember what I read a year or so ago. My book got lost in a box as I moved, but now I found it again.

Great story, but I'm not sure I get why they changed Lois Lane this much.

I'm taking a long break from this book from 26. Feb 2018. Untill I have the rest of this series of books.

I got this as a gift and had no idea it was part of a series and that's why I started reading it, but it didn't take long before I found out it wasn't a one and done. That's why I'm only on page 6 untill I get the other parts of this story.

Got recommended this from my Local comic book shop, since I wanted to read more Sci-Fi like Star Wars with a lead female, but in a series of books that was already published, because I feared reading a series that would never finish, however this book is nothing like Star Wars and uses two much time talking about military strategy, however I'm still determined to finish reading this book since I bought it.

I started reading this in 2014 when it came out, I only stopped reading it because I lost my copy.

A beautiful story, but I feel some of the dialogue could easily be shortened or out right removed, but I still really love the story.

I'm reading both the Novel and the Manga at the same time, to see what Haruichi changed to the story, so far it's only been small changes, but I feel like there is more care behind the manga, then there is for the novel.
