Politico’s Arena recently asked its contributors for book recommendations.  Christine Pelosi, daughter of Speaker Pelosi, answered the question, but did she really leave her own mother’s book off of her best read list?

… the best political book I read this year was John Grisham’s The Appeal ..

Is that the truth?

Well, not really, the full quote is here:

Aside from my book, Campaign Boot Camp (www.pelosibootcamp.com), and Speaker Pelosi’s book, Know Your Power, the best political book I read this year was John Grisham’s The Appeal

We also enjoyed the shameless plug of her own book.  We here at FamousDC never shamelessly plug anything we do.
