Former CIA agent Baer looks back at the intertwined, dirty history of the US and #SaudiArabia, showing why my country does nothing when attacked by terrorists who are Saudi, when a prince murders a journalist, or basically anything else. If they go down, so will we. This is a fascinating book. I not only learned a lot from it, it made me think and wonder about some other stuff. 🤔

I might HATE laundry day, but I love that I almost always find a book or two from the swap shelf in my apartments laundry room. I picked out these three today, and I am quite excited to read Sleeping With the Enemy. I remember loving the movie, but I don‘t remember much about the specifics. ♥️📚 #freebooksarethebestbooks 🤗😱
