American Wife: Love, War, Faith, and Renewal by Taya Kyle, Jim DeFelice
3.0
I obviously feel for Taya Kyle and her kids, family, friends, for losing Chris Kyle. It's a horrible thing that happened, and as with all biographies, my ranking is not one of her life and experiences.
I appreciated her view on his deployment, his and her life, their marriage, and ultimately, how she coped with his murder. I also thought it very heartwarming how she described the many people who came to help out after his death.
I think for me the book does have it's value in the fact that it shows such a different life and perspective. As a non-American I am not too familiar with the strong feelings of patriotism, pro-gun stance etc. so I thought it very interesting to *try* to see things from her perspective.
