Going There
by Katie Couric
Five stars is kind of a rounding up—but really this book is engrossing and full of the kind of dish you always want and rarely get in full from these kinds of memoirs. Is Katie a bit self-congratulatory? Yes. Is she also wildly down-to-earth and aware of how weird her world is? Yes. Has she experienced tragic losses and kept her sunny disposition despite them? Yes. Did she maybe first marry a guy who sounds like he could’ve turned out to be a wacky Trumper had he lived? Maybe. I enjoyed the Today Show parts the most, and of course half read this for the Matt Lauer bits (I always hated him and found him lechy. I couldn’t watch the today show after she left—he was too awful), which she more than comes through with. It’s a very honest, very no-holds-barred story, for better and worse, and it’s well-written.
