Thoroughly enjoyed it…
I finished the book, gave it 5 stars, and left it at that…until I read some of the lower star reviews. I have been stewing for hours at people saying there wasn’t enough about Barack. This is Michelle’s book. (While reading it, I actually had moments of thinking there was TOO much about him.) Or that it was self-centered. THIS IS MICHELLE’S BOOK about HERSELF – on whom else should it be “centered”? I didn’t pay attention to politics until recent years (as is probably true for many), but when he ran, I could see that the Obamas were genuine and intended to do good. When Barack was originally elected, I told my infant son that it was a whole new world. (We’ve since reverted back decades, but that’s neither here nor there.) Michelle is an amazing person and an inspirational woman. I found the book very easy to read and well written. (I have a degree in English Lit, but everyone’s style of speech and reading is different. For me, it was perfect.) I agree with what one person said about it being (slightly) reserved, but I understand that from many angles. However, I also found it revealing and inspirational. Even before reading this, I thought, “Michelle Obama for president.” She specifically stated in the book that wasn’t on her radar, but she should consider it. She is intelligent, confident, focused, organized, experienced, compassionate, and human. I have since searched for many references in her book like the Ellen push-up contest or the Jimmy Fallon Mom Dance. We are years past her First Lady-ism, and I am more impressed by her time in the White House, and being able to remain “normal”, now than I was capable of being then. She should be celebrated for always trying to be herself.

En mi opinión personal, se siente una sensación de bienestar leer las palabras de está gran mujer. La manera en que describe cada detalle, o relata sus retos y vivencias me ha permitido tratar de encontrar otro enfoque a los retos que enfrentamos dÃa con dÃa. Vale mucho la pena el libro

I always care for auto biographies because they can reveal real stories. This one is special, because not everyone becomes first lady of USA having an African-American background from South Side of Chicago and having a laugh-out-loud of saying intimate stories

I was wanting to get this book for a while now and finally found it and bought it. Looking forward to read it has I admire her and her family, I consider that she was one of the most remarkable first lady with her intelligence and appearances she became a great leader standing next to her husband. A true inspiration for many people around the globe. Thank you for letting us see you.
