Book review: Party Like a President: true tales of inebriation, lechery, and mischief from the Oval Office

Title: Party like a president : true tales of inebriation, lechery, and mischief from the Oval Office
Author: Brian Adams
Illustrations: John Mathias
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

Summary:  A president-by-president account of all the various vices the POTUS' were emboldened to.  

Review: I love a good addiction story and to hear about all of the Presidents' various vices was a dream book.  What's not to love?  Booze, women, drugs, gluttony--what more could you want to know about our great country's leaders?  The main reason I didn't give it the full five stars is it would have been nice to hear a little more dirt about some of them.

Book review: Young God

Title:  Young God
Author:  Katherine Faw Morris
Rating: 2 out of 5 stars

Summary:  Nikki is a determined 13-year-old girl who watches her mom die in the first pages of the book.  From that moment on she is on a mission to establish her presence in the world and protect what's hers.

Review:  I'm not sure if I didn't like this book because it was poorly written or because it was about a 13-year-old girl dealing with situations that no 13-year-old girl should have to deal with.  Despite some of the things Nikki did, she's a smart kid.  It was just sad that she felt she had to do some of the things she did.  She's clearly a survivor, it was just sad.  On the plus side, it was a really fast read.
