Enjoyable

Revisado: 08-13-23

True I don’t think this is his best of the series but I enjoyed it. And unlike others his kids bring a parallel to the book. He coaches basketball and his daughter excels. Things happen to his sons. And more.

Not every book can be stellar. I feel this version was needed to get to the next.

Take this book out of the library. Don’t buy it.

A little long…hard to put down

Revisado: 12-30-22

While this is a novel, places like Willowbrook have shown up in the US such as Samarcan (sp?) in NC. This book doesn’t drag but it is long. And yet I finished it and it continues to make me think.

Wonderful

I listen to this often at Christmas and it makes me happy and makes me think. My dogs are sick now and some days are difficult for me. I too have troubles. But the book makes me believe more in my dogs.

Wonderful Series

I love bookstores and this one is wonderful. Do read book one first. Perfect quotes and good descriptions. I can’t wait for the next one.

Why was this written

Revisado: 09-05-22

I have always enjoyed this series from beginning until this one book. And then it is as if a steel door stole all the good moments and slammed them shut. I wish I hadn’t bought it. A library book you give back. This you can’t. And it is hard to shut out of your mind.

Excellent

Revisado: 05-02-21

Each book of James Comey is excellent. But this one is especially good as it explains things. I am not sure whether Trump supporters could read this book and learn from it as many have never read news that isn’t filtered by a political lens. I applaud Comey in this book and find his last chapter to be as meaningful as his first chapter.

I hope he will write another book that will continue to make me think.

I didn’t support them but I admire them. I found this book paralleled others I had read by their family. The son George Bush manages to give his father respect and to tell both sides of the story and the closeness of the family. I read this during the last of Trump’s days in the White House and I marvel that those who elected the Bush men as presidents could have ever elected Trump. Bravo that there were some Republicans to respect.

The Title Also Works as the Book Title

Revisado: 07-19-20

The writer’s performance is quite well done but there appears to be too much of the same information and that information is repetitive and goes on and on.

Mary Trump does explain how Donald Trump is raised but rather than integrating the story as to why he acts the way he does, she lectures us about him. And this is especially true at the end.

I must say that I wonder if this book had been written by someone else if it would have been published.

The Best so far

Revisado: 07-17-20

I’ve read a lot of the Stone Barrington series but during COVID-19 I have been reading them in the order the books were published. While all of the books are fun not all are wow. This book has a good plot and some character development of the characters never before met in any book. I listen to the books and Tony Roberts is great.

Excellent not Just Politics

Comey tells his history of first jobs in a grocery up to being fired by trump. The book is easy to listen to and I hated that it ended so soon.
