I‘ve read some great nonfiction this year, but this was the best of the bunch.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis. The epitome of a powerful woman. She played the games, and dealt with the consequences, all while looking fabulous. Facetiousness aside, this is the biography of a woman who experienced unspeakable trauma and lived with it the best she knew how for the rest of her days. Yet, I‘m left wondering if she was ever truly happy.
I really enjoyed this and even more after meeting her at the national book festival.
Best Book of the Year for me! 🤩🙌🏻 A page-turning memoir with a bonus history lesson on the 60s. Imagine going thru 300+ boxes of memorabilia, diaries & archives from this pivotal era and listening to personal & impactful stories by this historian author & her husband who worked closely with such top political figures as JFK, LBJ, MLK and RFK. The parallels between the 60s and our current decade are mind-blowing!

This title is a must read I feel if you're interested in reading a book about this woman, her life, her family and her experiences. Heartfelt and full of information I found myself sucked into this #chunkster. #bookspin @thearomaofbooks
I liked this book way more than I thought I would. I‘d never even heard of Kick Kennedy before this book.
Fascinating timeline of Jackie O‘s life and death. As time passes, more details are revealed, i.e., information that was sealed X amount of years (after peoples‘ deaths) is now available to the public. 😔💔
