#KatyTur
review

Pickpick

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Katy Tur is very smart and quite funny. This book was an easy read, and the only reason I am giving it a 4/5 stars instead of a 5/5 rating is because I didn‘t love the jumping timeline (semi-linear timeline). I would have preferred a more traditional true linear timeline. I especially liked learning about Katy Tur‘s parents. This is a #mustread! #audiobook #Politics #partmemoir #KatyTur #bookreview #JPBookreview

Itchyfeetreader Agree - I listened to this on audio and the timeline baffled me to put into the wider context ! 7y

Redwritinghood Agree. The timeline and her tendency to go off on long tangents in the middle of an anecdote were my issues with this book. 7y
knp4597 Just started this one yesterday and I‘m already more than halfway through it :) The audiobook is narrated by the author herself and she‘s great. 7y

Started #Unbelievable today! I‘m loving #KatyTur already! This “is her darkly comic, fascinatingly bizarre, and often scary story of how America sent a former reality show host to the White House. It‘s also the story of what it was like for Tur to be there as it happened, inside a no-rules world where reporters were spat on, demeaned, and discredited... Unbelievable is a must-read for anyone who still wakes up and wonders, Is this real life?”

Dolly Imagine waking up from a longtime coma and finding out this. 🙃 7y

#KatyTur lived out of a suitcase for a year and a half, following #Trump around the country, powered by packets of peanut butter and kept clean with dry shampoo. She visited 40 states with him and made more than 3,800 live TV reports. From day 1 to day 500, Tur documented his inconsistencies, fact-checked his falsities, and called him out on his #lies. Trump tried to charm, intimidate, and even shame her, but he failed. #TBR #Travel #ReindeerReads
