Politics Behind the Scenes March 18, 2010 Lois A. Barron (Covington, GA United States) This book "Game Change" kept my interest all the way through. It was amazing to see what goes on behind the scenes with the candidates and what they go through to get elected. It's a shame really, but interesting reading.
Exciting Reading March 18, 2010 Rudy (Spring Hill, FL USA) You've heard it on the news, you've seen it on television but did you really know what went on behind the scenes. Game Change leads you through all the exciting stories that were behind the stories and the principal characters of the last election. I enjoyed reading the real life drama behind the decisions that came to be the election of a president of the United States.
politics and campaigning March 17, 2010 Randy L. Shell I think you have to be realistic that not everything will be true in a political book. It was an interesting book to read-a little slow during the first half, but eye opening and makes you wonder "is there anyone that is truly real in politics" or do they just get caught up in the game?
not so great March 17, 2010 Geoffrey Darby (Glen Ridge, NJ United States) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
breezy more obama than clinton more palin than mccain nothing really shocking if you lived thru the election you wont find anything new here
Fast Paced, Gripping, and Extremely Realistic March 17, 2010 John Wareham (New York) The strength of this non-fiction book--its novelistic style and necessarily imagined thoughts and conversations--might also be its Achilles Heel. I confess to making that observation as the author of The President's Therapist (and the secret intervention to treat the alcholism of George W. Bush), a "what if" thriller that uses an accurate biohistory of our 43rd President as a springboard into a series of fictional psychoanalytical sessions. To my way of thinking, comingling fact and fiction in that manner created a credible work of art. But to recreate thoughts and conversations inside a work of non-fiction is a taller order. Fortunately, I accepted the intellectual integrity of authors and Game Change seemed entirely credible throughout, perhaps in part because it confirmed my belief that the shamelessly promoted "perfect marriage" of John and Elizabeth Edwards was merely a myth. (Again, in the interests of full disclosure, I should mention that I distilled sonnets from both their utterances, and included them in my Sonnets for Sinners: Everything One Needs to Know About Illicit Love) In all, I thoroughly enjoyed Game Change. It was a riveting read from Page One, and thoroughly recommend it.
