Following my Easter Kennedy obsession, my books have arrived. The Kennedy Men was actually a mistake buy - I meant to get Laurence Leamer's sequel to his account of the Kennedy Women but ended up with this sensationalist rip-roaring read. A very different kind of book but pretty sure I'll be equally gripped.... Time to get reading!

Jackie O
Over my time off in Cornwall, I became completely obsessed with reading a book about Jackie Kennedy that I bought from the charity shop for 49p at New Year. While the book has horrendously biased in Jackie's favour (her husbands were pretty scathingly written up) it was absolutely fascinating, not least because it was basically a picture book documenting the Kennedy's impeccable style and good looks.

I've got the Kennedy bug and have ordered two more books about the Kennedy men and women. Can't wait for them to arrive! I hope they still have lots of pictures in, like my 49p bargain bin buy.
