The really interesting thing about this book is that it was written before Obama was even involved in politics, and long before he had aspirations of becoming President. I appreciated this, I felt like there was no hidden agenda, and he could be much more honest with his thoughts and memories - he didn't have to overtly censor himself for fear of public perception and backlash. This made it feel as though I was genuinely getting an insight into the man, not the politician.
