LOL I was just going to reply to your reply, but you seem to have deleted it! In the email you wrote: "I think so much of how we perceive books or artwork or tv is based on our experiences, past and present." and that is 100% true, we all filter everything we read/see/hear through our own experiences. Personally I was loving all the foreign cities Brown visited in 'DaVinci Code' which gave the book an ambiance of romance, a feeling I carry with me when traveling in Europe.
I've only read a couple of Grisham's books and often when I was bored and desperate for distraction and not finding the material involving enough to do the trick. I don't even remember the titles although one was the one w/the little boy/witness they later made a movie from (but most of his books have been made into films, haven't they?).
