    I absolutely loved The First Gentleman! Bill Clinton delivers a captivating and insightful story, blending sharp political wit with heartfelt moments. The character of Li was a standout for me—intelligent, layered, and deeply engaging. She brought such strength and nuance to the story, and I found myself rooting for her every step of the way. A smart, entertaining read that kept me turning the pages.

    The First Gentleman is a brilliant collaboration between Bill Clinton and James Patterson and the best yet in the series. The story is riveting from page one to the final page, the writing is precise and flawless. You are drawn to the truth of what you are reading. The story is cleverly laid out, and the characters drawn with depth and believability. These two authors are a perfect complement to one another. When I finished reading that final 466th page, I knew I had read the best book of 2025.

    A page-turner! Taut, fast-paced and authentic, as they nailed the details of the White House, court room drama and prison. The integrity and honor of being President of the United States is celebrated. Much needed to be remembered that to serve the people and not oneself is the true calling of a public servant.
