Let me start by saying, if you're into politics or current affairs, this book is a must-read. Woodward's 'War' isn't just another dense political tome—it's surprisingly engaging, almost like a thriller.

The book covers three major topics: Russia/Ukraine, Israel/Hamas, and the looming shadow of Trump. What stood out to me was how Woodward makes complex geopolitical strategies feel accessible. The behind-the-scenes accounts of Biden's team warning Zelensky about Russia's invasion? Absolutely gripping.

One thing I loved was the short chapters. They keep the pace brisk, even though the book is packed with info. The section on Israel's response to Hamas was particularly eye-opening—especially how Netanyahu's actions contrasted with Biden's pleas for restraint.

Now, let’s talk drawbacks. The lack of focus on immigration policy felt like a missed opportunity. Given how pivotal this issue is, I wish Woodward had dug deeper here.

Overall, 'War' is a well-researched, informative read that offers rare insights into global conflicts and U.S. politics. Whether you're a political junkie or just curious about current events, this book delivers.
