Rezensionen

Nancy Pelosi is an interesting public figure, but this book felt very ghostwritten (and not especially well, either). I certainly could have done a better job myself. Not to mention that I accidentally checked out a large print copy, which I never enjoy reading. (Not related: I can't believe how short this book is. The large print edition is maybe half a centimeter thick; can't imagine what it looks like in regular print. More like a pamphlet than a book.)

Favorite points:

"'Never fight a fight as if it's your last one.' Good advice, once again, from Lindy Boggs. I've been in politics long enough to know that while there are eternal friendships... there is no such thing as an eternal opponent."

"Every difference of opinion is not a difference of principle." —Thomas Jefferson, quoted in book.

I haven't read this, and don't intend to. Nancy Pelosi was commencement speaker at my graduation from Mills College in 2010, and she gave these out to all the graduating class.

Pretty good book. I always like to read about women who have accomplished a lot.
