I was attracted to this book as it was written by GWBush's press secretary who was working during 9/11. The story is a straight forward fiction account of a female president with a predominently female cabinet. Having given a national network a 24 hour pass to shadow the president, chaos ensues as the country is attacked during those 24 hours. The decision is to let the news anchors continue their observation. The story line is plausible, although a female-heavy cabinet? Not yet! Also, the decision to let the news people remain did not make sense. I expected a more realistic story from a former press secretary. ( )

I enjoyed this book just as I did Nicole's other two!! Good reads. ( )

For a book about women in power and a mass terrorism event it's incredibly boring. ( )

There’s nothing like reading a novel full of political intrigue written by a political insider. Bestselling author Nicolle Wallace was the White House Communications Director during George W. Bush’s presidency and that experience shows in her writing of Madam President. Imagine being president when the nation is attacked. That would be bad enough but add in an aggressive media team broadcasting from inside the White House when that happens and you’ve got a recipe for disaster.
