End of Days: The Assassination of John F. Kennedy

I didn't intentionally read this book so close to the anniversary of JFK's assassination, but in doing so, the story hit deeper given the way it's written. Jumping back and forth between Oswald and the scene with Kennedy, [b:End of Days: The Assassination of John F. Kennedy 18269355 End of Days The Assassination of John F. Kennedy James L.

I'll say it's more focused on Oswald and his motives, but we get a lot of Jackie's perspective toward the end as well.The writing was strong and brought me to tears a couple of times, making the tragedy feel so current. I imagine the impact would be even stronger for someone who was alive during that time. What I didn't like was how vigorously it changed perspectives and that there were a lot of gaps in the chain of events. I also tend not to trust books that start and end by saying that this is the only possibility and you're wrong to question otherwise. I'm not someone who makes it a mission to disprove the official story no matter my opinion on it, but I'm automatically going to be suspicious of any take that discourages further questions (the same goes for books on the conspiracy side). These comments gave the book a negative tone. Otherwise, it was an emotional, albeit bare-bones, take on 11/22/1963.
