The other two my library isn’t acquiring just yet. I’m hoping to get to read it some time before my eyesight fails due to old age. My library is glacially slow about getting new books. I’ve had books on hold for months that are still listed as “on order”.

9. In today's Guardian news somebody said "I Alone" is broader, more in depth than WOLFF's

Both with overlapping sources, so some same stories.

I'm currently reading samples on my iPhone. I prefer to give my money to Apple over Bezos. I'll bear what you've said in mind.

19. TBH, Wolff's book is the last of the three I want to read.

I wasn’t all that impressed with “Fire and Fury,” but did find Leonnig and Rucker’s “A Very Stable Genius” enlightening.

Mary Trump has another book coming out, in August I believe.

Deconstructing Trump will keep a lot of historians/reporters/psychologists busy for years to come.

...despite conservative attempts to eradicate public resources.

They loan in electronic formats too, I believe.

& I’m always torn. Do I buy anti-trump books in part to vote with my wallet and make the anti-trump market soar? Or do I refuse to buy anti-trump books because, even though it’s anti, it’s still pumping $$ into the “trump is good for business” market (book sales, ratings, etc…)?

I currently have all of these recent and upcoming political releases on my ZON wishlists. Deciding which, if any, to buy:

THE CRUELTY IS THE POINT (6/29)
HATCHET MAN: HOW BILL BARR BROKE THE PROSECUTOR’S CODE…(7/6)
FRANKLY WE DID WIN THIS ELECTION (7/13)
LANDSLIDE: THE FINAL DAYS OF THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY (7/13)
AN UGLY TRUTH: INSIDE FACEBOOK’S BATTLE FOR DOMINATION (7/13)
I ALONE CAN FIX IT (7/20)
HERE, RIGHT MATTERS: AN AMERICAN STORY (8/3)
REIGN OF TERROR: HOW THE 9/11 ERA…PRODUCED TRUMP (8/10)
THE RECKONING: OUR NATION’S TRAUMA (MARY TRUMP’S NEW BOOK) (8/17)
