I felt the same way. I made some bad choices at that age, but they were different each time. Why she continued to go back to a man who not only didn’t care about her, but was having sex with virtually everyone in the WH is unfathomable to me.

I’ll be interested to see if she turns to fiction. She has a wonderful sense of style.

I never read NF at night and I was glued to my kindle on the couch on a Friday night. Exciting life of mine 🙂 but I also agree about being appalled by her personal choices. I wanted to sit her down with a cocktail and talk out better plans!

Her choices were probably no worse than those of my most 28 year olds but that day is so long gone for me I could not believe any woman would be so foolish.

So glad you got to it & gave us the word. It sounds like her personal choices are crazy! I think I’ll go the audio route.

It’s a pretty good mix and even the parts that are political are not party related- if that makes sense. It’s just the behind the scenes of one administration- not much policy and nothing about the battles that went on during Obama’s second term.

I better get to listening. I had assumed it was more political so I’m glad to hear it’s really not
