Huma AbedinâHillary Clintonâs famously private top aide and longtime advisorâemerges from the wings of American political history to take command of her own story.
What The Reviewers Say
Abedin attempts to answer some of these questions, with varying degrees of success. One senses at times that when she falters, she lacks insight rather than sincerity, which is itself a kind of honest answer: Abedin may be one of the most politically astute and well-traveled women in the world, but she portrays herself as far from worldly, at least in affairs of the heart.
[Abedin's] admiration for the woman she's worked for more than 20 years, and who reportedly views Abedin as a second daughter, is on full display.
The memoir is candid yet soaked in denial, a cautionary tale of orthodox Good Girlism.
... some readers may wonder whether the author is almost too pure for her chosen world. But then, in her telling, so is half the White House. Bill Clinton comes across as thoroughly avuncular. The first lady’s office is a sisterly utopia.
