A review by mariadarc
Becoming by Michelle Obama

5.0

Disclaimer: I was a fan of Michelle Obama before reading this book!

NOW, I am an even bigger fan. This woman is the definition of class and poise. I relate to her central premises: taking situations and deciding what to do to make things better, using your voice, putting your reputation behind causes in which you believe. She tells all of this about her time as First Lady and talks about growing up working class and using her education and drive as a lever to pull herself out of where she started into the woman she has become. If I can be so bold: I can relate to that since my education changed my life, too!
