What the fuck? I was intrigued but also kind of appalled by the concept - there's something that strikes me as That said, I doubt that someone of Hillary Rodham Clinton's fame and power would allow such a book to exist without her permission. I continued to think as I read Rodham.

It's written more or less like a political memoir - though with more honesty and more risque details. We meet Hillary in the late 60s and follow her to , though we jump around in time, with some years coming to us as flashbacks, and some year summarized down to a few sentences.
The premise, of course, is that Hillary meets Bill, dates him, but doesn't marry him. And because of that, it ends up being weirdly like a one-that-got-away romance? Side Note: Kinda of funny in a fucked up way to write a book that basically says "If you hadn't married your husband, you wouldn't have taken the biggest L of your life. Rodham gives us intimate details, like Bill Clinton's height he's 6'2", his tallness is referenced constantly , what sex is like with him good but kind of boring , and how he has to have the agency in their relationship even in this girlboss trainwreck why is he the one who decides they shouldn't get married???
It gives us things I never wanted to see, like Hillary Clinton experiencing widespread lesbophobia, Donald Trump endorsing her for president for some reason that felt masturbatory in the bad way I fear , and a last minute fake dating subplot.
