Query: Boring propaganda

John Grisham took $27 dollars from me under false pretense. This book is nothing more than page after page of meaningless stastistics and propaganda. The characters are tissue paper thin and the plot development almost nonexistent. Also, if there are so many homeless in Washington D.C. how plausable is it that Grishman's main character stumbles across that one tragic family on his first night in a shelter? Save your time and money - give this one a pass!
