What are the "best" sections of Fear?

I have a short free trial, so have the audiobook, but not enough time to hear it all. Can anyone point to sections that are very interesting and mostly not reported in the media? Something I'm not likely to have already heard about? Thanks much!.

Same for Omarosa's book, while I'm at it...

..chapt 1 seems to be how all the characters got to know each other and how they all came together on the trump train. Prob Chapt 2 will be about the election and immediate aftermath. All that makes my stomach knot up so I can only listen to about 15 minutes at a time before I tell Alexa to pause. I cant wait to get to the parts where trumps unraveling.. I'm not liking the narrator.. I'm more of a George Guidall fan.



Havent done Omarosa's book yet. Im still waiting for her to personally apologize to me about the 'everyone will bow down to Donald trump' comment.

Trump had no beliefs...Bannon gave some to him. Trump didn't even know what "pro-choice" meant. Forgot how boring Woodward's personaily is.

Omarosa's a better writer but I was disappointed because a vast chunk is about her and her career not dirt on Trump. She spends a lot if time trying to convince us..she knew he was bad and planned to leave anyway.

Sorry. I don't think I'll bother with these tell-alls again. It's impossible to avoid the good parts on TV before book comes out. Never even finished Wolfe's book. He's a horrible writer.
