Fluff. But fun, informative fluff about Teddy Roosevelt’s walk-on-the-wild-side daughter Alice. I did learn a lot about the times and politics of that era. Save me from the cage of constrictive social conventions please! ( )

I received an advanced copy from NetGallery. I tried my hardest to get into this book but I couldn’t. I thought Alice was a spoiled brat and I couldn’t stand reading her. I will try reading this again but this time I didn’t like it. ( )

Alice Roosevelt, the oldest daughter of Theodore Roosevelt, was only two days old when her mother died. Her father was unable to cope with the situation of his wife's death and handed over Alice to his sister Anna. He would later remarry and father several more children. Alice meanwhile becomes a reminder all through his life of the love he lost. Alice would fight for his love and for his attention. She became a woman that took her life in her own hands. She married the man she wanted, she fought her Roosevelt cousins when they thwarted her family's political plans. And she finally found some happiness. Alas, not everything lasts forever.

Boring-I could not concentrate on this book. Kept wandering...... ( )

American Princess: A Novel of First Daughter Alice Roosevelt is a difficult book to plow through. There is way too much dialogue. The woman never worked in her life, was taken care of by her father then her philandering husband. She lived a life doing whatever she wanted to and saying whatever she wanted to no matter the consequences. There was no mention of any philanthropic organizations who were grateful for her contributions. Nothing. Because of the tremendous use of dialogue and droll woman's life this book only receives three stars in this review and is not recommended. ( )
