I waited for three months for my library hold of this audiobook to come to me! It was definitely worth the wait. I specifically wanted to listen to the audio recording of this story as opposed to reading it on paper because Michelle reads the book herself. Hearing the author's timbre and emphasis can enrich the story far beyond printed words.
I enjoyed experiencing every moment of Michelle's story, perhaps even more so since I voted in both of the Obama elections and can remember vividly all eight years of the Obama presidency. I feel like I celebrated every achievement with Michelle in this book, and mourned when she did. I was fascinating to see how she shaped the job of First Lady to uplift children and military families.
It was hard for me to read her transition out of the White House, perhaps because the election results were devastating for me, but Michelle ends her book on a note of hope and reflection. Michelle is still so young, and I am humbled by her dedication and work so far and cannot wait to see what she does next.
