I also like books about life in the White House. I really enjoy stories that share the real lives of famous people, showing them to be just like you and me. Great to hear their stories in their own voice. I read this as an audiobook downloaded from Audible. This is not a political book but a family story. They discussed the effects on the family watching their maternal grandfather decline due to his Alzheimer’s disease. Barbara “the Enforcer” Bush has several great one-liners. The reader gets a glimpse into the life of the Bushes as well as that of the senior Bush family. The book is full of heartwarming anecdotes as well as humorous ones. They tell about life in the Governor’s Mansion and in the White House. They discuss their early life in Midland Texas and attending high school in Austin, Texas when their father was Governor. Jenna Bush Hager is a correspondent for NBC’s Today Show and Barbara Pierce Bush is CEO and founder of Global Health Corps. This memoir by the fraternal Bush twins has the forward by their mother, Laura Bush.
