I know this is book is controversial, but by reading all the aghast reviews of the sex scenes beforehand, I was prepared for a much raunchier tale. I really enjoyed this "what-if" story and honestly, she (and the American public) may have been in a better place had Hillary never married Bill!

54%. It was super awkward in the beginning reading steamy scenes between two public figures that are still alive. About a quarter of the way through the book became interesting but I had one day to return and 46% left to read. It wasn’t worth staying up at night to finish it.

Loved this! I had to stay up to some ridiculous hour this morning to complete it. I had to keep reminding myself this was a work of fiction. I’d be really keen to know what both Hillary and Bill Clinton think of this novel. Interested to read some other work of Curtis Sittenfeld.
