This is a discussion forum topic for the November 2023 Book of the Month, The Impossible Mock Orange Trial by Thad G. Long.



Did you feel that the content of the book had depth beyond being a thriller?

Aside from being a thriller, the novel has an on-going undercurrent of philosophy woven into it. The book encourages the reader to consider weighty topics of racism, prejudice, ethics, morality, and above all the struggle to reconcile heart and mind when faced with such a complex dilemma.

I believe "The Impossible Mock Orange Trial" delves into important themes. It prompts readers to consider ethical dilemmas, issues related to race and fairness, and the workings of the justice system. The story goes beyond surface-level excitement, encouraging reflection on deeper societal and moral issues.

Yes, I feel this book is also about the law system, we can learn a lot from the trial, and the process of how this justice system goes in the book.

Yes I do think so. Alot can be learnt from the trial.

Yes, I also agree. Many could be learned about the law system from this book. There many deep messafe woven within this book.

Yes. I think the book leaves the reader with so much to think about besides simply being a thriller. The book paints the grays and dilemmas of law, which I think is something deep enough to me.

This book is for you if you're seeking for an excellent and beautifully written legal thriller and don't mind staying up late reading. The characters are given life by the author. The case's legal, social, racial, and economic implications are carefully considered. This book covers a lot of ground. Looking forward to Thad Long's future writing.

Yes. I believe that the book had an in-depth view of our justice system. Sometimes it doesn't work in your favor, even though you are the innocent victim. The big corporate institutions have a lot of power and money behind them and the little guy is treated unfairly.

Though suspense is an integral part of this book. This book definitely delves into other topics during the entire course of the trial. There is a lot to learn from this book. We learn the intricate details of how the judicial system works. We learn a lot of ethical and moral values from this story. The emotions throughout the book are a striking feature for me. It's about how one's greed takes over the issue at hand. Readers can connect to the characters and the socio-economical plight of the plaintiff. This book tells us that there is hope and to have faith in the judicial system.

I believe that this book is also about the legal system because it teaches us a lot about the trial and the workings of the legal system.

I think this book delves into the details of how the legal system works, its advantages and disadvantages, giving us insight into the process taken by the journey, the judge, and the lawyers throughout a trial. The author's message about ethics is another aspect of this book.

Oh, it's so much more than a thriller. I kept getting disturbed by just how despicable some lawyers can be. Of course, the underlying race issue was a constant. I firmly believe, despite all the 'protests', that Dave Thompson was solely chosen for the defence as he was a black lawyer.

If you're looking for a superbly written legal thriller and don't mind reading late at night, this book is for you. The author breathes life into the characters. The case's ramifications for law, society, race, and economy are thoroughly taken into account. This book goes into great detail. Anticipating Thad Long's next literary works

Hi, Scott, yes, the book is also educational. I am learning a lot about tires. I have changed the tires on my and my family's cars hundreds of times. I never knew that tires are made out of different kinds of rubber that are heated to blend together. I have always thought that getting a plug put in a hole in my tire was a safe option. Not!! Have a good day.
