I really, really liked this book. There were parts of it I didn't love - it was none too subtle and the Laura Bush doppelganger was consistent almost to a fault. But overall, it was a great read.
I have to admit to being curious about what parts of it were made up and which were true. Am especially interested in her relationship with the Bush clan and how the family really feels about W.
I liked Prep as well, so I am not suprised I dug this author. I am surprised that I actually felt MORE positive

I just enjoyed this book from start to finish, I don't know how much of it is really based on the life of Laura Bush, but if so, I respect her immensely. It is also a story about modern marriage and I thought that aspect of it was as interesting as the Bush story. I like her writing style and the book provides much to think about. ...more
