A review by becca19
American Wife by Curtis Sittenfeld

4.0

It's not a book about politics, it's a book about the human heart and the nature of love. Thinly veiled as the Laura Bush story, it takes the reader on a winding path from her early childhood to a very important day in the White House when everything in the book culminates and Alice must face the consequences for her actions. Beautifully written, the author expertly guides the reader's heart so they also feel the same love for both Andrew and Charlie that Alice feels.
