The President Is Missing
it was ok
The President Is Missing
by Bill Clinton
Where to start with this book? Should I talk about how I don't believe that either James Patterson or Bill Clinton actually did much of the writing? Should I talk about how Bill Clinton is spending his retirement creating Bill Clinton fa...
A Court of Mist and Fury
liked it
A Court of Mist and Fury
by Sarah J. Maas
