I am currently working on my Master's Thesis, but I procrastinate by reading all the books I can! In the meantime, I have a good job with fun people.

What I Saw at the Revolution

What I Saw at the Revolution
By Peggy Noonan

Condensed. Good book. But then I’m a sucker for anything to do with the White House. And a behind-the-scenes look at a Republican Presidency! How fun. I especially like that this was written from the viewpoint of a speech writer. I think they have one of the most interesting jobs at the White House. Taking the ideas of the President and crafting them into a coherent message despite all the other people who want to weigh in and make “slight” changes to the message! I can see how the job would burn someone out quickly, though, with all the politics involved within the White House. Impressive book.
8/10
