Becoming
by Michelle Obama
I am so glad I finally read this one and it was every bit as wonderful as I’d heard it would be. I loved learning more about her: her childhood and her family, meeting Barack, figuring out her career, having children, and what it was like in the White House.
It felt like I was sitting down with a friend each time I’d press play on the audiobook. I’d be like, “Oh, I’m just going to go hang out with my friend Michelle!” There is just something so calming and comforting about her voice. She is just so great, so relatable. Listening to her tell her story reminded me how huge it is that we finally had a Black First Lady, to know that someone who looked like me could hold that title.
For me, as a relative audiobook newbie, it was very long and it took me ages to finish, but I knew I had to do it on audio since she’s the narrator. I really admire her and I thought this was such an inspirational and uplifting read.

I finished!! The longest audiobook I have ever listened to (not that I've listened to many) and it was wonderful.
