INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

The first oral biography of John F. Kennedy Jr. is an extraordinarily intimate, comprehensive look at the real man behind the myth. Sharing never-before-told stories and insights, his closest friends, confidantes, lovers, classmates, teachers, and colleagues paint a vivid portrait of one of the most beloved figures of the 20th century, revealing how the boy who saluted became the man America came to know and love who still captures public imagination twenty-five years after his tragic death.

Born into the spotlight, John F. Kennedy Jr. lived a short but remarkable life filled with expectation, ambition, family pressures, love, and tragedy. JFK Jr. dives deep into his complicated psyche and explores the what-ifs, illuminating both the cultural and political moment he inhabited and the way this son of a president, so full of promise and possibility, embodied America’s most cherished hopes.©2024 RoseMarie Terenzio (P)2024 Simon & Schuster Audio

Amazing.

Done very respectfully. A great tribute to JFK Jr., Carolyn, and Lauren. I really enjoyed learning about them.

Great read

Great read. I remember JFK Jr. but I was just a kid when the accident occurred. It was great to learn more about the man.

Raw, Honest Memories

I love the idea of an oral history about JFK, Jr. The breadth of people who knew John throughout his short life from different points/stages of his life created a full picture of the man.

This oral history made me quite emotional, but for the first time, I got a complete picture of someone who was more than just a little boy who saluted his father's casket. He was more than just the president's son. He was a whole person. I highly recommend this read.

Inspirational figure

I started getting into John a couple of years ago. When he died, I was just a little boy in the 90s, so I didn’t understand watching the news much back then about his loss. As I’m now in my 30s, I feel a lot of similarities and struggles with Mr. Kennedy. So much so, he’s become my role model now in striving to better myself and be a good man.

I’ve also strived to write an alternate history story where he lives, and inspires all of us towards a better path. I don’t think he’s truly gone, so long as everyone keeps his spirit and humanity alive in their own hearts.

This book was a great tribute to a truly good man.

Outstanding

The ability the book had to make me still feel the actual pain of loss.

Pleasantly enjoyed

I loved the stories each person shared. It was so nice to hear how great John jr was with embracing people & how he loved so many. So sad what happened to them.

It was hard to keep up with who is who & what role they played in their lives.

Highly recommend this audible.

One of the best!

I’ve read quite a bit on JFK, Jr. but this stands out as one of the best, if not THE best. Brutally honest and raw. Written by his personal assistant, with input from his inner circle, dating back to his teens. Highly recommend.

Great insights on JFK Jr

Fascinating excerpts from many who knew JFK Jr best. Great read!! I highly recommend this book.

Amazingly personal view of his life

Very well thought out and written by so many that knew him best. Dignified and touching, funny and meaningful.

How they all, touched so many people.

I appreciated getting multiple peoples memories. From the most intimate of friends to a casual acquaintance.
