Becoming

Listened to the audiobook and LOVED it. May be the best audiobook memoir I've listened to thus far. Michelle Obama is an amazing, strong, intelligent, caring, sensitive, independent, ambitious, creative woman – plus a whole other suitcase of redeeming qualities I haven't unpacked here. All of this shines through in her book and all the more so in the lilt of her unwavering voice. I highly recommend listening to this to learn more about her childhood, the “backstage” of elections and the white house, what it's like to be married to the president and raise children in the white house, how to maintain sanity and grace on an international stage, and how to stay grounded and thankful through it all. Her story is incredible and she's an inspiration through and through. And a beautiful writer! Highly recommend.
