Reception
In a review by The New York Times, Rice’s detailed account of foreign policy choices during the Clinton and Obama years was characterized as "clinical." The article also noted that she became a "lightning rod of partisan hatred" amid the Benghazi dispute. Rice herself admits to favoring "policy-focused, behind-the-scenes roles," though she was compelled into the public eye at that time.
NPR described the memoir as "candid," emphasizing Rice’s straightforward personal storytelling.
Publishers Weekly lauded the book as an impressive "debut memoir," documenting Rice’s extensive career in public service.
