A waste of money

What a disappointing piece of junior high fluff. The characters were spoiled whiners, totally unlikeable. I think Wallace should stick to what she does best.

Storyline inclues a FEMALE President of the USA!

I am a Democrat and this writer, Nicolle Wallace, is not only a Republican, but a professional Republican political figure. I was determined to not hold that against her, though, because I was so interested in reading this book! In her capacity as a skilled writer, she made it 100% easy for me to NOT do that. The storyline is fascinating. Part of a description I read of this book, said that it was about ". . . three dynamic women who have made it to the top . . ." One of those women being referred to happens to be President of the USA. A FEMALE President! How intriguing! And it is a terrific book. I loved every minute of reading it. Especially liked the format she used in taking us, the readers, from one chapter of the book to the next. I took a leap of faith and bought the sequal to it, "It's Classified," along with the first book. So glad I did, too! I am very much looking forward to getting started on it. Decided to go ahead and give this review of the first one, before I start the second one, in case somebody else might like to know if it was a good idea or not to buy them both at once. Again to say that I'm sure glad I did!
