** I received a copy of this book for free through a Goodreads giveaway. **

I actually gave this book to an 11 year old that I know and she gave it "multiple thumbs up!" She says it has a lot of good and interesting information about Hillary and that it made her think. She said she would definitely recommend it to any of her classmates and even to some kids who are older than her if they want to learn more about Hillary Clinton. She told me that she particularly liked all the stories about Hillary and that she liked the fact that the book didn't just 'tell the good stories, it told about her mistakes too because everyone makes mistakes". ( )

With the presidential election approaching, I wanted to know more about the Democratic nominee for president. This book is not very neutral and you can tell the author supports her, which is slightly troubling for a biography. I did thoroughly enjoy reading about her childhood and her standing up to bullies at a young age. I liked how the author covered every major event in her life. I also enjoyed how many quotes of Clinton there were. This book covered events in her life that most of the American public is probably unaware of, like when Governor Jimmy Carter of Georgia ran for president and asked Hillary Clinton to help run his campaign in Indiana. The message of this book was simply to inform the reader about Hillary Clinton and her history in politics and public service. ( )

Good book, quite candid. I'm so glad I'm doing this, getting to know the candidates- looks like I'll have plenty of time. And these books are short and easy.

I was afraid reading the candidate books would make me very wishy washy. But hey, looks like We all are. Anyway, this book gave me plenty to think about.

Pros- she's hands down the most experienced person in the history of EVER for the job, at a time when we can't afford to make a mistake. I respect her unbelievable ability to keep on keepin on.
Cons - she sometimes stretches powers of belief. Which is why everyone who runs against her toots the BELIEVE horn.

And that's not even getting into the issues. Here is my question to America: why are you afraid to look deeply into both sides? Won't it just make you better informed when the time comes to vote? Don't we owe at least that to our country? Or is it more that we "don't have time" because frankly we want constant entertainment? What could be more important?

It disturbs me. Come on people, pick up these books, they are quick and easy. Be informed. Then go vote Your own conscience (not your spouse's or parents' or boss, kids, church, friends, whatever - your own!) in the party primary and in the general election. We all have walked in our very own shoes. We all have our very own vote. How precious that is. ( )
