The Truths We Hold: An American Journey by Kamala Harris

4.0

Political memoir is a new genre for me. I guess I haven't really read any others besides Becoming (if that can even be considered political). I didn't feel particularly moved by any of the passages, but I did feel like I learned more about Harris; which is really helpful for me as I plan to vote for the Biden/Harris ticket.

It seems that she's had a career focus of sex trafficking. So that should appeal to some of my more conservative friends. Her relationship with Doug was sweetly described. And I like the way she frames climate change as a national security issue (she is not the only one to do so, also it is!).

I would recommend if you want to learn more about Kamala's career. But I don't think it's essential reading. Since I enjoyed listening to it, and brought it up in several conversations with friends and family, I'll give it four stars.
