Assassination Vacation by Sarah Vowell
3.0
I wanted to like this book, but was hampered by a few things.
1. Sarah Vowell and I could never be friends in real life. She is afraid of everything!
2. I would assume a book about presidential assassinations would mention, oh I don't know, the most recent one? Not so! Kennedy didn't make the cut, apparently.
3. The tidbits of information were interesting, but Vowell was so vocal in her Democratic-leaning predilections (which I obviously didn't mind because I too loathed the Bush administration) that I wondered where her biases affected the rest of the book.
