Becoming by Michelle Obama
4.0
“You may live in the world as it is, but you can still work to create the world as it should be.”
I wasn’t sure what to expect from Becoming. I thought Michelle Obama would have given us some more of her advice, but this was a real story of her life. Surprisingly she was very relatable. The way she grew up and how her and Barack fell in love were all told in a way that the average person could connect to. She did not hide her truth nor did she dwell on any pain. She told her story without rushing and it was beautiful. Honestly, I am not a fan of autobiographies but this one I enjoyed.
