Negative Positive
Title: Very disappointing.
Review: I wanted to love this book. I cut my political teeth volunteering at the Reagan/Bush '84 national headquarters. Like Mrs. Bush, I'm staying at home to raise our kids. I have always felt a connection to Mrs. Bush's public persona, so I was so excited when this book came out!What a letdown. It reads like a list. She treats the amputation of her own toes the same as why George Bush left the NRA which is treated the same as her bland chicken casserole recipe. The book is sprinkled with bland recipes and it's riddled with asterisks by names of famous people I should probably care about but don't.Perhaps Mrs. Bush has earned to right to look back on such a rich life and treat it with the depth and wisdom of a grocery list. Perhaps it's a tribute to all those people with asterisks next to their names. It does not make for good reading.
