I loved this, and I feel simultaneously sad about this future that we didn’t get. I’m going to need a little time to digest, but the portrayal of complicated women was so so well done.

Appreciated this take amidst the current world. Couldn’t put it down—read the whole thing in a day and a half. An intriguing plot and a relatable writing style gave this book an entertaining and enjoyable edge.

I was skeptical about this book at first but received a free copy so decided to read it.
Omg. I am blown away. I've read Prep, Eligible, and American Wife by Curtis Sittenfeld. I liked and was entertained by Eligible and American Wife. I loved Prep and Rodham.
A lot of things in this book resonated with me. I enjoyed reading about the politics in this book as an East Coast political junkie.

This was the first time I’ve read fiction based off non fiction, so I didn’t really know what to expect. I loved the concept - what would have happened if Hillary didn’t marry Bill - but I ended feeling disappointed and deprived of how different life could have been with the events depicted. This book let me understand and view Hillary in a whole different light, and it was refreshing.

Hard not to feel intrusive reading this book, especially in the first section. Maybe all Bill-and-Hillary sex scenes are awkward, maybe all Sittenfeld sex scenes are awkward, but I was not feeling it. Just the same, the narrative unspools smoothly and I did enjoy reading it.
