Jackie Kennedy could possibly be my favorite person in history ever. The ups and downs that she lived through and the moments where she was a part of history and the moments where she was on the sidelines of history - she just is a woman I admire in so many ways.

I saw this book for review on Netgalley and I couldn't wait to read it, so I am glad I set aside the time and read it - in one sitting!

Edited with names and things as header of chapters, the book went chronologically through Jackie's life from her childhood to years before JFK, through JFK and beyond. I was really only aware of the JFK years, so I appreciated the book having years before and after and that being just a portion of the story.

Told through Jackie's point of view and in her voice, I kept having to remind myself that it was a fiction book based in a certain amount of fact. I kept wanting to think that this was her story and all truth!

There are more in this On the Couch series, so I may have to try the next one.
