Becoming
by Michelle Obama
emotional
informative
inspiring
reflective
slow-paced
I have had Becoming on my reading list for almost three years. My mom gave me a physical copy of this book for Christmas and I am unsure why I took this long to read it. Michelle Obama writes about a wide variety of her life experiences including growing up in Chicago, working for a high-end law firm, falling in love with the future president of the United States, being the first lady, and living after leaving The White House. As far as memoirs go, Becoming is top-notch. I experienced all of the emotions while reading her story and I didn't want it to end. I would be interested in a follow-up chapter on where she gives her thoughts on the current state of the world, as this was first published in 2018 and a lot has happened since then.
