Queens of the Resistance: Nancy Pelosi: A Biography

WoW! What a woman!

When I saw this book on @NetGalley after recently seeing Mrs. Pelosi on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, at this time, they were beginning impeachment proceedings on Pres. Trump and I found myself impressed by her, she would not be bated, and she conducted herself with poise. Both rare in this day and age.

“Pelosi's style was always poised, consistent, slow to speak, and quick to listen. Confidently in control and yet demanding in her expectations.”

I will not pretend to be up on politics; with conditions such as mine, I tend to avoid media and other triggers that tend to send me ‘down the rabbit hole.' While reading, I found myself enjoying the frankness and feeling of camaraderie the authors were able to exhibit. With their constant references to ‘sis' and ‘Queen,' it was easy to feel like you were a part of this voyage.

“...as a Queen of the Resistance, she is courageous in her endeavor to pull in light and hope, and set America back on a moral course.”

My only hang-up with this read was how towards the end when referencing the POTUS; there was a bit of smack talk. Even though throughout there was a tone of bringing about the end to the patriarchy, these last pages or so, there did seem a bit excessive.

Finally, I'd like to thank @NetGalley for this beautiful read that they provided in exchange for an honest review. LMK any questions, I enjoyed this and thought you would too.
