About this listen
2018 Audie Award Finalist for Autobiography/Memoir and Excellence in Marketing
"In the past, for reasons I try to explain, I've often felt I had to be careful in public, like I was up on a wire without a net. Now I'm letting my guard down." (Hillary Rodham Clinton, from the introduction of What Happened)
For the first time, Hillary Rodham Clinton reveals what she was thinking and feeling during one of the most controversial and unpredictable presidential elections in history. Now free from the constraints of running, Hillary takes you inside the intense personal experience of becoming the first woman nominated for president by a major party in an election marked by rage, sexism, exhilarating highs and infuriating lows, stranger-than-fiction twists, Russian interference, and an opponent who broke all the rules. This is her most personal memoir yet.
In this audiobook she describes what it was like to run against Donald Trump, the mistakes she made, how she has coped with a shocking and devastating loss, and how she found the strength to pick herself back up afterward. With humor and candor, she tells listeners what it took to get back on her feet - the rituals, relationships, and reading that got her through and what the experience has taught her about life. She speaks about the challenges of being a strong woman in the public eye, the criticism over her voice, age, and appearance, and the double standard confronting women in politics.
She lays out how the 2016 election was marked by an unprecedented assault on our democracy by a foreign adversary. By analyzing the evidence and connecting the dots, Hillary shows just how dangerous the forces are that shaped the outcome and why Americans need to understand them to protect our values and our democracy in the future.
The election of 2016 was unprecedented and historic. What Happened is the story of that campaign and its aftermath - both a deeply intimate account and a cautionary tale for the nation.

Story
In this lyrical, unsentimental, and compelling memoir, the son of a Black African father and a White American mother searches for a workable meaning to his life as a Black American. It begins in New York, where Barack Obama learns that his father - a figure he knows more as a myth than as a man - has been killed in a car accident. This sudden death inspires an emotional odyssey - first to a small town in Kansas, from which he retraces the migration of his mother’s family to Hawaii, and then to Kenya, where he meets the African side of his family.

In July 2004, Barack Obama electrified the Democratic National Convention with an address that spoke to Americans across the political spectrum. Now, in The Audacity of Hope, Senator Obama calls for a different brand of politics: a politics for those weary of bitter partisanship and alienated by the "endless clash of armies" we see in Congress and on the campaign trail; a politics rooted in the faith, inclusiveness, and nobility of spirit at the heart of "our improbable experiment in democracy".

Story
Anthony Fauci is arguably the most famous–and most revered–doctor in the world today. His role guiding America sanely and calmly through Covid (and through the torrents of Trump) earned him the trust of millions during one of the most terrifying periods in modern American history, but this was only the most recent of the global epidemics in which Dr. Fauci played a major role. His crucial role in researching HIV and bringing AIDS into sympathetic public view and his leadership in navigating the Ebola, SARS, West Nile, and anthrax crises, make him truly an American hero.

But as number one internationally best-selling author Bob Woodward and acclaimed reporter Robert Costa reveal for the first time, it was far more than just a domestic political crisis. Woodward and Costa interviewed more than 200 people at the center of the turmoil, resulting in more than 6,000 pages of transcripts - and a spellbinding and definitive portrait of a nation on the brink.

An authentic, captivating and inspiring listen
Hillary Clinton delivers in a splendid manner an humble and honest recollection of the 2016 presidential campaign. Unguarded and very human she describes in a very objective way the events that lead to the election of Donald Trump on November 8th 2016. Never complaining and always willing to admit the mistakes of her campaign, she tells her side of the story, shedding an even brighter light on the unfairness of the race and her description of already infuriating events of the campaign helps to a better understanding and makes them even more alarming. Not abdicating in face of the adversity, she reasserts her devotion towards the American people, still aims for the greater good and brings a powerful message of hope.

A story to be understood! Well done!
This book took me into a world I didn’t quite understand or perhaps appreciate. Secretary Clinton does a great job of explaining and recounting what happened like only she can. I listened to the audio version in my car on my drives to and from work. Found myself escaping into Hillary’s world and it was like Hillary was riding in the car with me and telling me what happened. Thoroughly enjoyed. Recommending for anyone who cares knowing what happened.

Motivating
Hillary lays out in plain terms what’s at stake and that we should get involved in local issues and voice our opinions. At the very least, get out and vote. A great motivator for young people and especially for women to take a stand and be the leaders of the future. I didn’t really know her but now admire her strength and past commitment public service.

Hillary is intelligent, caring and pretty down to earth in this book. No matter your parting sentiments on the election, it is interesting and enlighting to experience things from her point of view. Well written and well narrated, but I hope I never have to hear "quote/unquote" again, BC holy crap, that probably added 20 minutes of run time. :/ Aside from that, the book was enjoyable, and Hillary does her best to inspire. Definitely recommend.

Theirs always to side to a story!
It's nice to hear Hillary's side of this election, what goes into a campaign, how much work it takes and the emotional effects it has on people. You don't have to agree with her political views to listen to this book, as it goes over much more than just her position on policy, As a Canadian, I took great interest in the USA 2016 election as whoever became president would also affect my government!
Hillary was defeated, she took time to mend her wounds, then she stood up and faced the world!
