Melissa，
This could be a hard read if you are suffering from COVID fatigue。 It steps through the events of last year， sarge by stage。 Slavitt definitely seems to have been in a position to speak knowledgeably about the topic， but also makes his position and opinions on the pandemic clear。

Andy Slavitt accounts his experience as a former President Obama administration staffer， helping with the rollout of the Affordable Healthcare plan， to the turnover to the new administration， and then jumps quickly to early 2020。 I was unsure about reading this book considering that the events described within are so fresh in my mind and still currently happening。 However， once I started to read， it was difficult to put down - even if it was making me quite angry， but no more so than I already h Andy Slavitt accounts his experience as a former President Obama administration staffer， helping with the rollout of the Affordable Healthcare plan， to the turnover to the new administration， and then jumps quickly to early 2020。 I was unsure about reading this book considering that the events described within are so fresh in my mind and still currently happening。 However， once I started to read， it was difficult to put down - even if it was making me quite angry， but no more so than I already had been watching as decisions were rolled out since March 2020。 Slavitt's accounts， experiences， and knowledge in this book allowed me have faith that there are people with a good head on their shoulders attempting to put forth knowledge and leadership to help guide most out of this active pandemic。 He covers the transition， the way that decisions were made， the reason why the American Healthcare system makes it difficult to actually serve people， and then into the transition into the President Biden Administration。 His book ends shortly before March 2021， however he has some reflection in the end of what things may look like - what they might look like now （presently writing this in June 2021）。 I definitely recommend this to be picked up to have some views of the back ground workings of many government and nonprofit entities。 Whether you lean one way or another， any who read this can get something out of it。 。。。more
