52 weeks book challenge

This week I read Playing for Pizza by John Grisham. It is about an NFL quarterback who has a horrible season of play in the U.S. and costs his team a spot in the playoffs. The team fires him. He has no other prospects for playing in the states so his agent finds a team in Bologna Italy that needs a quarterback. They offer a pittance salary compared to what he makes in the U.S. but he takes the job and winds up falling in love with Italy. It was an o.k. book but more along the lines of Skipping Christmas or The Painted House than The Client or The Firm, if you are familiar with other Grisham books.
