So, I’ve read this probably 3-4 times, seen the movie 2-3 times, but this was my first time listening. Overall I thought the narrator was good (I’m picky with fiction narrators), though some of the dialogue was weird, especially when characters did t ...more |

This was a good read (but sad too—and I’ll get to that). I really enjoyed the personal stuff, especially when she was younger. Once Barack got elected, obviously the politics started taking a bigger role and I found it overall less interesting and so ...more |
