the book Supreme Courtship

The author Christopher Buckley's is known for his political satire. This is the first novel of his that I have read. When you take a reality TV show judge and put her on the Supreme Court the result is satire at its best. The book was a fun enjoyable read.

Book review He Who Sings Last

He Who Sings Last by Lisa Laird Dirosso .This is a good and quick thrilling mystery read. We get a little taste of all the characters just enough to keep you guessing. Just when you think you know where the story line is going the plot thickens and twist. Then it ends in a cliffhanger leaving you hanging on for the sequel.

SUPREME COURTSHIP by Christopher Buckley BOOK GIVEAWAY


Thanks to the wonderful people at Hachette books I am having another book giveaway. This time it is for the book SUPREME COURTSHIP by Christopher Buckley.
Book Information

President of the United States Donald Vanderdamp is having a hell of a time getting his nominees appointed to the Supreme Court. After one nominee is rejected for insufficiently appreciating To Kill A Mockingbird, the president chooses someone so beloved by voters that the Senate won't have the guts to reject her -- Judge Pepper Cartwright, the star of the nation's most popular reality show, Courtroom Six.

Will Pepper, a straight-talking Texan, survive a confirmation battle in the Senate? Will becoming one of the most powerful women in the world ruin her love life? And even if she can make it to the Supreme Court, how will she get along with her eight highly skeptical colleagues, including a floundering Chief Justice who, after legalizing gay marriage, learns that his wife has left him for another woman.



Soon, Pepper finds herself in the middle of a constitutional crisis, a presidential reelection campaign that the president is determined to lose, and oral arguments of a romantic nature. Supreme Courtship is another classic Christopher Buckley comedy about the Washington institutions most deserving of ridicule.
This sounds like a really good book and I can not wait to read it.
