Michelle Obama masterfully balances wit and wisdom, levity and sincerity in her memoir spanning from her childhood on the Southside of Chicago to her last days as the First Lady of the United States. Her memoir is a testament to how we can all be swept up in other people’s dreams, and the courage and resolve it takes to follow your own. Even reading this in 2022 as a 26 year old woman, there are some timeless themes in Obama’s work that will stay with me for years to come.
