American Adulterer: A Novel Audiobook

" Man, this was a stupid book. I could only take it for 30 pages. "

" An interesting read, but I think the author took alot of liberty with the facts. Feels like he morphed JFK and Bill Clinton together using the facts from JFK's administration. Didn't feel accurate because there was not a single mention of Robert Kennedy. If you are going to read this book, please make sure to read it for the entertainment factor and not for its historical accuracy. "

" I hate to spoil the ending but, he dies... "

" This was one of the most difficult books to finish. The author tried to be so objective in his telling of the story that the reader feels too detached to make a connection. Then again, maybe that was the point- after all, it is a story about JFK and I imagine it difficult for one to fully grasp his story. Anyway, the book was quite monotonous with only a few memorable points not worth rehashing in my review! "

" I give this book two stars for some ridiculous premises, and an egregious error. I was appalled to read that "the subject" called someone and informed them that only the commander-in-chief could declare war. Now, I realize that our last few Presidents seem to believe this sentiment, I am unaware that our Constitution has been changed. Mr. Mercurio, only Congress can declare war, not the commander-in-chief, and I am fairly sure that JFK knew that. I understand it was fiction, but I struggle with the new non-fiction of an over-reaching executive office, I don't need it perpetuated in my fiction. "

" Details on JFK's mental and physical addition to sex, as told by an edgy MD. Not sure if I believe in the concept of sex addiction but it's certainly an interesting perspective on it. Also, who knows if the deets are true... "

" Interesting premise. A fictionalized psychological study on the affairs, addictions & ailments of JFK. Entertaining if taken at face value (I.e. Don't read too much into it). "

" How much adultery can one witness before yawning? How thinly veiled can the Kennedy references be? "

" Fairly conventional novel based on JFK's life and psychology, as known to the author. Good for passing the time. "

" This was an interesting book, but I had to keep reminding myself that it was fiction. "

" Impersonal. "The Subject", aka JFK & point of view do not make for an enjoyable read. "

" As with most reviewers, I found the book in parts interesting (the medical background), creative (the "clinical" approach to JFK's motivations), repetitive (the 3rd person style), and ultimately unsatisfying (the package promised much but delivered ...less). "

" I couldn't get into the style of writing. Even knowing the identity of "the subject" wasn't enough to pull me into the book. "

" An interesting fictional view of JFK's life, written with a clinical analysis of his many ailments. "

" Too narrowly focused on the paradox of an immobile, incapacitated man as sex addict. But then again, the title is American Adulterer, so don't expect much beyond that. "

" Once the premise was understood and executed...there was no story arc. "

" I had heard things in the past about JKF not being faithful, but I had no idea to what extent he went. "

" at first turned off by 3rd person narration but was won over by the personal details that i was unaware of. some really intense, emotional scenes left me near tears "

" Imagine a historical fiction book about Kennedy's womanizing and medical problems while in the White House "
