An Account That Appears to Be Andy Biggs's Gave Five Stars to a Book Warning That Muslim Immigrants Will Erase the West. 'I Can't Really Disagree With Anything He Says.'

A Goodreads account that appears to be Andy Biggs's gave five stars to Mark Steyn's 'America Alone' and Ann Coulter's '¡Adios, America!' — two books built on the idea that immigrants are replacing Western societies. His campaign won't say if the account is his.

An Account That Appears to Be Andy Biggs's Gave Five Stars to a Book Warning That Muslim Immigrants Will Erase the West. 'I Can't Really Disagree With Anything He Says.'

Andy Biggs is running for governor of Arizona as a steadier, calmer version of himself. His online book reviews tell a different story.

On September 23, 2026, Axios Phoenix reported that a Goodreads account that appears to belong to Biggs gave five-star reviews to two books arguing that Muslim and Latin American immigrants threaten white Western societies. When Axios asked, the Biggs campaign would not confirm or deny the account is his, and would not answer questions about the books.

"I can't really disagree with anything he says"

The first book is Mark Steyn's America Alone: The End of the World as We Know It, from 2006. According to Axios, it argues that falling birth rates among white people, combined with Muslim immigration and population growth, will wipe out Western society. Its back cover predicted "Talibanic" book burnings in New York and the U.S. Supreme Court signing off on Sharia law. The progressive media watchdog group Fairness & Accuracy in Reporting called it "inarguably Islamophobic."

The account logged it in 2009, when Biggs was an Arizona state legislator. It gave the book five stars and wrote:

"I can't really disagree with anything he says."

Not "interesting argument." Not "some good points." Anything.

Five stars for Ann Coulter, too

The second book is Ann Coulter's 2015 ¡Adios, America! The Left's Plan to Turn Our Country into a Third World Hellhole. Axios notes that some people credit it with shaping Trump's anti-immigrant platform in his first run for president. Coulter makes the same kind of population-replacement warning about immigrants from Latin America, and The Atlantic wrote in 2016 that the book "is packed with statements about 'Latin American rape culture.'"

The account gave that one five stars too.

Both books echo what's known as the "Great Replacement" — a far-right conspiracy theory that claims there's a plot to shrink the political power of white people. A candidate for governor of Arizona should be asked, plainly, whether he still can't disagree with anything in them.

The account is 17 years deep

This wasn't a single stray click. Axios found the account has logged, rated and reviewed about 1,400 books since 2009. It follows an account that appears to belong to his daughter. It was still public as of Tuesday afternoon.

A campaign that wanted to say "that's not him" could have said so in one sentence. It didn't.

It matches what he's said in public

Biggs doesn't need a book review to show how he talks about immigrants. In a 2019 op-ed he posted on his own congressional website, he wrote that "no other country in the world would stand for this type of invasion of migrants from every corner of the world." In 2022, he premiered a border documentary at the Heritage Foundation titled Alien Invasion.

"Invasion" is not a neutral word. It's the same framing the replacement books are built on: people moving here aren't neighbors, they're an army.

Running as a moderate

Axios points out why this matters now. Biggs — one of the most conservative members of Congress — is trying to project a more moderate image as he runs to unseat Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs.

We've watched that makeover happen in real time. He deleted the "Defending Life" page from his campaign website even though every vote on it is still his record. He calls Arizona's anti-trans ballot measure an "80-20 issue". Now the books he said he "can't really disagree with" are coming back up, and his campaign's answer is silence.

Arizonans deserve to know which Andy Biggs is on the ballot: the one in the ads, or the one whose account five-starred books about immigrants replacing white Western societies.

The bottom line

A Goodreads account that appears to be Andy Biggs's gave five stars to two books warning that Muslim and Latin American immigrants will overrun the West, and on one of them wrote, "I can't really disagree with anything he says." His campaign would neither confirm nor deny the account is his. In an op-ed on his own congressional website he called immigration an "invasion," and he premiered a border documentary titled Alien Invasion.
