This epic read starts with the immigration of the first family member of JFK's arrival in the States...from there the reader takes an amazing journey through the history of the Kennedy's with family photos. Highly recommend this one. #chunkster #bookspin @TheAromaofBooks

My February wrap-up! I completed five books and the two books on the top row were over 1500 pages combined! They were ALL great reads 😀

Whew! 29+ hour listen covering his family‘s immigration to America and finishing with his decision to run for president. This is Part 1 of 2 books. I enjoyed learning about who JFK was; his childhood, into adolescence, into an adult, war hero and his political career. I also liked the rosy and not so rosy parts of his life that are highlighted, not just all the love for this complicated president and ladies man. Now to wait for book 2.
