I’ve mentioned before that I have a history of holding on to books in progress for quite a long time. With my last installment featuring The Summer Garden by Paullina Simons I have ultimately given up on it (at least for now, maybe the audiobook will be in my future). This time I want to feature a book I have not given up on, it just has fallen out of my priorities.
Thomas Jefferson: The Art of Power by Jon Meacham I started reading in 2012! I only barely cracked the surface of this before I had to switch priorities and it fell by the wayside. I have continually shuffled it around my nightstand and every time I look at it I think, “I have to get back to this one”. Unlike other titles that have sat there awhile, I do actually WANT to finish this one. It’s a long book and more on the dense side as it focuses on politics and such, so it doesn’t read quickly like a novel, which is why when I was reading it, it was just small amounts at a time. I have heard very good things about this book and I do want to finish it – I just might have to grab up an audiobook version if it ever comes up on sale.
Have you read or listened to this book? What have you thought?
