American Wife: A Novel by Curtis Sittenfeld
American Wife, by Curtis Sittenfeld, is a fictional account of a woman who may or may not be someone similar to former First Wife Laura Bush. Once I got over my initial, “Is this what really happened to Laura Bush?” ponderings, I enjoyed this humorous, sometimes bawdy, tale. Sittenfeld’s heroine, Alice Lindgren, is very likeable. If you’re a fan of political chick lit, I recommend checking this book out.

We now have Laura Bush’s new memoir “Spoken from the Heart” in Popular Reading. It would be interesting to read her book and see how it compares to the fictional work “American Wife”.
