Historia
Not many White House Press Secretaries capture the nation’s interest the way Jen Psaki did. Refreshingly candid and clear, Psaki quickly became known for her ability to break through the noise and successfully deliver her message. In her highly anticipated book, Psaki shares her journey to the Briefing Room and beyond, taking you along the campaign trail, to the State Department, and inside the White House under two Presidents.

Terrible book
Revisado: 09-02-24
I was hoping for insights into the white house press office and what this actually is, is a crappy “how-to” book full of ridiculous and almost comically impractical advice and lectures into how to communicate.

Historia
In her mid-20s, at the height of tech industry idealism, Anna Wiener - stuck, broke, and looking for meaning in her work, like any good millennial - left a job in book publishing for the promise of the new digital economy. She moved from New York to San Francisco, where she landed at a big-data startup in the heart of the Silicon Valley bubble: A world of surreal extravagance, dubious success, and fresh-faced entrepreneurs hell-bent on domination, glory, and, of course, progress.

Terrible narration
Revisado: 03-10-24
The narration really put me off, it was too forced and acted. The faux indignation and the ups and downs were very annoying and I almost gave up several times.

Absolutely brilliant - couldn’t stop listening
Revisado: 06-24-23
A brilliant book with excellent narration. It reveals a lot about the super prime property market in London, which is very interesting, but I really appreciated the inner life of the characters and the goodness of the narrator. Wonderful book.

Pointless
Revisado: 10-10-22
For some reason, it starts with King George VI and speeds down until current days without really adding anything new. The only new information it has to add is regarding recent events and the youngest generation of royals. I suppose the very flimsy new bits of information it has on this would not fill a book so the author goes back 3 generations in a poorly told, tragically boring, summarized and glossed over version of events. A pointless book.

Terrible, terrible narration
Revisado: 05-18-22
Fantastic story, very well written, kind of book you can’t put away. Unfortunately, the performance is terrible. The narrator makes all sorts of ridiculous affectations and intonations and the nasal quality it attributes to many characters it’s also very unpleasant.

Confusing, forced and full of cliches
Revisado: 02-18-22
The narration is very confusing because they insist on using ‘we’ (a not so subtle reference to women’s solidarity), hard to follow who’s saying what. The story in itself is a bit non-sensical but the worst of it all is the constant cliches abou women, quite annoying. This pseudo-feminist odyssey is just a bad book trying to jump on a bandwagon.

Gripping from the first to the last minute!
Revisado: 01-31-22
A great story of women in law, it truly reflects the nature of the struggle between wanting to fit in ok one side and being true to oneself on the other. Not only that is stylish and just a great story. A bit exaggerated at times and the ending is somewhat rushed and very naïve but it is, after all, fiction. Also, great narration!

Unbearably preachy
Revisado: 01-28-22
This pseudo-mystical thriller is unbearably preachy with its constant reminders about divine light, being touched by God and glowing lights. The thriller bits (which, in fairness, are not bad) are just a flimsy excuse to lecture readers and listeners about kindness and faith.

Bad performance
Revisado: 10-11-21
The narrator is tiresome and re interprets characters. All female characters have the same intonation when speaking and the same vocal ticks.
