Objections. My only real objections to Thai book was that I could not put it down. From the first page I was hooked. I was lucky enough to have lived through this period in time and I was a page and a staff member for a congressman during the early 1960’s. I remember a number of the people talked about in this book. Many of them are truly great people who worked for our government because they believed in our government and the people they served. Thanks Jake for taking me back to that time in history where anything seemed possible. Your story does answer some of the questions that I saw and wondered why these things were happening. I know the book is fiction but it maybe the answers for many questions.

Great story. I truly couldn’t put it down once I started it.

Good tale about Washington in the 1950’s. But unfortunately, it strained credibility.

Fun. Easy fun read.

The Hellfire Club. This book had lots of interesting material with which to work, but the writing and character development were almost painful to read. He is a non historian trying to fit in every historical fact he knows without developing a continuity of story telling. The characters are superficial. Margaret is a professional woman who is rescued out of the blue literally in midstream by her husband who is supposed to be states away; he swoops into the ocean to rescue her and a pony.

Disappointed. Jake Tapper is one of the top journalists on either newtwok or cable news, there can be no doubt about that fact. I see that ‘Hellfire Club’ has received numeoruus rave reader reviews, I cannot add my name to that list. I have been very disappointed in the book. I read a few pages daily thinking it will start to arouse my interest. Nothing yet. I’m beginning to wish I had purchased a hardcover so I could give it to a friend. It looks as though it will remain in my iBook library as being the only unread book. Meanwhile I will continue to watch Jake on CNN. No hard feelings, I know any attempt I would make to write a book would not conclude with positive results.

The Hellfire Club. Very well written and never slows down.

Great read. Tension keeps mounting as we roller coaster through McGiver like superhero/supervillain events, all done by our duly elected politicians . Most fascinating, and informative is the history. Jake (who is like a household item around here..we never miss his shows), gives us a purview of McCarthyism..the Red Scare and how often cutthroat behind the scenes political negotiations are. Couldn’t put it down.

The Hellfire Club. Slow, slow read. Then all of a sudden in the last 75-100 pages, unrealistic drama occurs. Don’t waste your money. Jake should stick to the news.

Bogged down. Got bogged down with the historical passages re congressmen and other government occurrences. Some were interesting others not. Hate skiing passages but I did. The rest was good.

Great Historical fiction. Thank you Jake for offering an interesting and thoroughly entertaining read. I ate it up. The parallels and comparisons to todays challenges are important and relevant. Let’s have another book soon!

What a great first try. Jake please keep the fiction coming. Really well done.

The Hellfire Club by Jake Tapper. I really loved how this book was so well-researched. Even though it is fiction, the main events did occur. I did not realize there was a shooting in Congress, but it really happened. I have learned a lot of historic details that I did not know before. The warnings about the danger of using power to enrich oneself and take revenge on one’s enemies is clearly an age-old story, and it should be used as a cautionary tale for today. Beware the McCarthy and Cohn emulators in Washington now!

Jake Tapper should stick to being an anchor on CNN.. Too many characters, too confusing. The story is also too violent. And do you really need to reference Margaret’s pregnancy every other sentence?

CNN host's attempt at fiction..... Mr. Tapper, stick to the news. Your antics on the television everyday shouldn't lead you to believe you're some facinating author. Folks, don't waste your money, the book is all based on historical happening that he twists into "his own" fiction.
