The Room Where It Happened: A White House Memoir by John Bolton
1.0
It's amazing how little self-awareness Bolton has in this book. He criticizes people for their actions, then turns around and does the same thing he just critiqued. He also name drops and praises himself constantly, which gets tiring quite fast.
It's also beyond frustrating how clear he makes it that no opinion or plan has value except for his own in regard to literally everything. Especially--in my opinion--when his views on certain treaties or plans are simplified and naive. You'd think someone with so much experience would know better.
I wanted to get through this book for the insight it might bring on how the current administration functions, but I don't think it is worth the headache. I'll just read a synopsis or two and be done with it.
