Wow. 1. I'm pretty proud of myself for reading this. Nonfiction books are a big deal for me and I frickin conquered this thing. 2. this was really good. Was it a bit boring at times? YES. But my goal with reading this book was not to have a party, it was to get a better understanding of why exactly I am such a big fan of Obama, and why his policies created a better, more equal America. Although, I got a lot more David Litt than I really wanted (which is totally my fault for not realizing this is a frikin memoir), I appreciated his insight and comical takes on Obama and his presidency and honestly it made the role of commander in chief a lot less "god-tier" than I have always believed it to be, which I genuinely think is important for my generation. It made Obama seem human and showed me that he has flaws himself. His presidency was in NO WAY picture perfect (though he did a whole hell of a lot better than the idiot in the white house right now).
