Becoming
by Michelle Obama, 2018, Crown Publishing Group, New York
This book is a personal memoir of Michelle’s life from when she was a young child through her tenure as First Lady. The book highlights her struggle to find her role in life as she migrates from her childhood living in the South Side of Chicago to being the wife of the President while raising two daughters.
The book is interesting as it gives a picture of how someone with her background manages to get into Princeton and Harvard Law School but some of the really interesting parts related the arrangements that had to be made to transport and protect her children while trying to give them some sense of normalcy. She also make her distaste of politics very clear.
I wasn’t fully engaged with this book for some reason but it is a good read and provides a good picture of Michelle as a person and her aspirations.
