Citizen: My Life After the White HouseCitizen: My Life After the White House by Bill Clinton
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I was fortunate to borrow this audiobook from Libby. And unfortunately, I didn’t quite finish before it was due back. And people were waiting to read it, so I had to let it go back. I put it on hold to finish the read. But I think I have read enough to review the book.

Surprised. I was surprised that I liked the book as much as I did. I felt I learned new things in many different areas of Mr. Clinton’s life, and how history played a part in our story. He wrote about his family life in ways that were remarkable, loving, and full of pride. I expected a lot of political jargon and boring, dry subject matter. I look forward to finishing the book later.

I nearly forgot that Steven Weber (narrator) easily and naturally lent his voice to President Clinton. I think this was a good choice. I’m sure the president’s voice would have been acceptable, but it might not have held up to the constant reading.

As I said from the beginning, I was surprised at how I liked this book. I thought I would be bored or lost, but I felt educated by the time I returned the book.

The Situation Room: The Inside Story of Presidents in CrisisThe Situation Room: The Inside Story of Presidents in Crisis by George Stephanopoulos
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

For a non-fiction, history type book, this was very interesting. George Stephanopoulos wrote the book and narrated most of it. He is a quiet unassuming man, who knows from experience about the subject matter. He was even able to insert a bit of humor now and then. Not as well as his wife, Ali Wentworth does humor, but, lightened the heavy subject matter a bit.

Lisa Dickey was a contributing author.

Peter Ganim, Elisabeth Rodgers also narrated. That brought the possible tome to something to keep connected.

I highly recommend this book if you are curious about the workings of such places as The Situation Room. Why is it there? When did it start? Who has used it and why? It is intriguing.
