I don’t know how old she is or if she likes Fiction, but Stephen King’s 11/22/63 is a favorite of mine. It plays with time and being able to stop the assassination from happening. Great read, not biographical at all lol.
My favorite Stephen King book!
I saw that series on TV and thought it was excellent!
@Pam The book was better. I cried at the end, which I NEVER do.
I will have to try it.
The book was A LOT better. Sooo much more and no goofy guy sidekick and much more back and forth that they left out.
There are many great non-fiction books about the Kennedys – The Kennedy Women is one title I remember. And she also might enjoy reading the books about the Kennedy-Skakel case.
There are so many.
“The Fitzgeralds and the Kennedys” by Doris Kerns Goodwin is by far my favorite.
Jackie’s Girl is good.
I LOVED the Summer I met Jack. Such a good book!
The Fitzgerald’s and thenKennedys by Doris Kearns Goodwin
Mrs. Kennedy and Me. Such a good book…very graphic. I can’t get that image out of my head when he describes the assassination ?
Yes I thought this was a good book too.
I read Jackie, Janet and Lee a few months ago, I really liked it.
I am reading Bobby Kennedy by Chris Matthews now, its taking me awhile with family stuff and several other books going too but pretty soon it will have all of my attention.
Love, Jack by Gunilla von Post.
A really fun one is the book Jackie Kennedy and her sister did about their trip to France together as young women. Jackie did all the drawings.
I loved The Best Loved Poems of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis.
Me too! poetry ❤️
Maria Shriver has a new book “I’ve Been Thinking”
Profiles in Courage by John F. Kennedy. I read this years ago, wonderful!
Great book but not ABOUT the Kennedys.
Fairy Tale Interrupted is a memoir written by JFK Jrs personal assistant. I found it very emotional to read about this tragic event as well.
An Inconvenient Woman by Dominick Dunne is a think veiled novel about the Kennedys and Marilyn Monroe. Very good read.
