Slow pacing with not a lot of substance. Interesting concept, but ultimately I was bored of it halfway through. (Maybe it's the fact that I like democracy lol or maybe it's that I'm not as interested in a bunch of people hyping up 1 individual who didn't really show why they should be hyped up). I don't quite know how to feel other than I should've liked this book because what an interesting historical change that could have given me meaningful commentary on our present reality (I'm thinking the Man in the High Castle here), but most of the commentary that was there was surface level. It's probably best to go into this thinking you're reading a book about celebrity life in America with not a lot of political intrigue other than how it pertains to marriage relationships.
