Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance by Barack Obama

2.0

If it weren't for the fact it was written by someone as important as Mr Obama most of this book would be bafflingly dull.

Nice to learn a little about the POTUS's early life but the narrative is quite boring and focused on Obama asking himself broad political and cultural questions but without much of a story to make these any more than cheesy musings.

He tells a couple of funny anecdotes about relatives in Kenya in the second half. If you're getting too bored in the first half, just skip ahead until he goes to Kenya.
