gabieowleyess 's review for:

A Promised Land by Barack Obama
4.0

I read this book for the Booktube Prize nonfiction octofinals.

I love President Obama a whole bunch. Living through his presidency is one of those things that makes me excited to be alive during the time that I have been alive. He definitely has been my favorite president in my lifetime. But does that mean that I enjoy reading a 700 page book that he wrote about the policies he did during his presidency? Let’s just say that this was a bit of a struggle for me. I did end up listening to the audiobook along side this book to help me get through it. It was really nice to be able to hear his voice and to hear all of this stuff. But I’m much would’ve rather heard more about Michele and his daughters.
