chalexdv 's review for:
The Room Where It Happened: A White House Memoir
by John R. Bolton
DID NOT FINISH
The interesting thing about decided to read/listen to a book without doing any further research than "it's a bestseller" and "the cover looks alright" is that you get to read something you otherwise wouldn't have.
Unfortunately for me, this time it definitely wasn't a hit. I listened through 1 hr 55 min of Bolton's book, and kept wondering if it was setting up for something, or if it actually was as absurd as it seemed.
Bolton is extremely self-aggrandizing, and pats himself on the back constantly. Many of the words he chose to describe certain things seem to leave loopholes in case he wants to back-pedal, and in general he seems like the sleazy, pompous politician that is hard to listen to for too long.
His weird backing and excusing of Trump simply grosses me out to the point where I definitely won't finish this book out of my own free will.
