I liked The Boys’ Club, by Erika Katz, better. Also enjoyed Partner Track on Netflix. (Super soapy but perfect for bingewatching when I was sick in bed for weekend!)

Would love more recommendations! I know there a bunch of BigLaw lawyers-turned-novelists out there!

This one is based on a blog the author wrote while working at an actual Big Law firm: https://www.amazon.com/Lawyer-Novel-Jeremy-Blachman/dp/0312425554

The blog was active when I was in law school and I remember reading it. I think the blog was better than the book but it's been a while since I read either.

Thanks!

Came here to rec this. Back in the day, ATL was like an episodic book about BL. Now it’s Fishbowl.

It's always been a fishbowl.

I don’t know if this is what you have in mind but this non fiction account of the court cases against the coal industry is absolutely riveting:

Linda Fairstein, Steve Martini, Michael Connelly are all great authors of legal thrillers.
