Greg Iles was recommended to me ages ago and I‘ve had this book in my shelf for years… finally got to in and I‘m a little disappointed I put it off for so long!

It‘s quite the #chunkster but I flew through it. A page-turner for sure. Looking forward to the next (and to go back to the prequel trilogy)

TrishB I‘ve enjoyed all his books so far. 2d
Bookish.SAM I bet @TrishB !! I think I will too 😊 wish I‘d gotten to them sooner! 2d

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Really interesting look at the politics and sociology of the Nixon era. In previous biographies and Watergate books I‘ve read there‘s some sympathy for him as an awkward outsider. Not here. Perlstein goes all in on the vicious tactics he used to get and keep political power (like prolonging the Vietnam war to help his election 🙃). Looking forward to more Perlstein, but this was a #chunkster at 881 pgs, so maybe after a break…

When you work at the polls for your state‘s primary elections and the candidates for both parties are already decided, you‘d better bring a large book. And a fully charged e-reader that‘s loaded with more. Yawn. 🥱

JamieArc Sounds like good #chunkster reading time! 1mo

Whilst this is a genuine #chunkster of a read...it's also very detailed read. It almost reads as a work of fiction...although there are brief moments of dry information (as a lover of historical nonfiction this didn't bother me in the slightest) but some readers may find it a little tedious. #bookspin @hearomaofbooks

Kristy_K Great review! I‘m hoping to get to this one later this year. The page count is definitely a little daunting. 2mo

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟 (4.5/5)

What a series. I was captivated from beginning to end. The world-building and the character development were top notch. It was an emotional rollercoaster. The last installment did not disappoint. It was a #chunkster, but well worth the time. I listened to the audiobooks, and was quite impressed by the narrator, as well.
