Summary: My First...
Comment: This was the first book that I read about Jackie, and the one that will probably stick out in my head the longest. I love reading about Jacqueline. I can't seem to get enough. If only I was alive to see her, atleast on television, I would be a truly happy person. lol. But life, is as it is. And I'm only 15. Hopefully as I get older I will be able to learn more about her, and get to see what she was really like. (Their are so many things that you never learn about her) But this book gets really close to letting you sit right next to her, and have a little chat with the former First Lady herself.

Summary: Jackie After Jack: Book Review
Comment: This is a very good book, the author seems to bring Jackie O to life right before you. You see all sides of the most famous First Lady in America's history. You see the person behind the famous smile and sunglasses, her grief and depression after JFK's murder, her restless traveling and fascinating and ultimately unsatisfactory marriage to Ari Onassis, her rediscovering herself after Ari's death and her final years with the true love of her life, Maurice Templesman. The author makes you realize that this was a real life person, not some Goddess from Mt. Olympus. She was a flawed human being, but then again, aren't we all? I highly recommend to anyone who wants to learn about this fascinating lady.

Summary: A More Human Approach to an Icon
Comment: My favorite part about this book is the fact that it gave such a refreshing look at someone who could, so easily, be idealized. Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis was human & possessed all the failings of a human being. I don't think she saw herself as anything else, & reportedly, could be very self-deprecating among her friends. The Kennedys & all of their family will forever fascinate our imaginations, but this book was a look at a very real woman, who withstood many challenges. She was able to present herself to the world as almost superhuman, which may have been her greatest failing. As they say, everyone is fascinated by power & strength, but too often rejoice in seeing those who possess those qualities topple from grace.
