A true classic. Hard to follow at times, but that seems to have been done on purpose.

An interesting look into the mind of an evil president before he truly rose to power. This villain origin story is unlike any other in that there is no shift from good to bad. He’s simply selfish from beginning to end and let’s all his goals cloud his better judgement. I put off reading this book for years and am glad I finally picked it up. My mind will forever juggle other the mystery of Lucy Gray.

All the things I hate about romance in one book. Every trope is overdone and the reading of the audiobook has a really annoying voice. I’m shocked I made it this far before throwing in the towel.

So good I listened twice. Definitely a book I’ll be purchasing. Everything was out very well and inspired me to really give my cares a second thought.
