Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Pretty sad to hear about Gen David Petraeus and his resignation as CIA Director, after an admitted affair with his biographer. Before you go out to buy the book, or even check it out from your local library, I'll give you a tip: don't. It's horrible. I checked this book out a year or more ago, from the library, and it's one of the very, very few books I've failed to finish. As I recall, it seemed to border on pure hero worship and seemed to be nothing but the worst kind of suck-up writing that I almost gagged as I labored through the first few pages. I eventually did something I never do, which was flip from chapter to chapter, trying without success to find some redeeming quality. From my perspective, there was none.
