Becoming : Michelle Obama
May 2nd 2019 Michelle Obama takes us through her childhood in Chicago, her college days in Princeton, her stint as a lawyer when she met Barack Obama and finally her 8 years as the First Lady of United States in this very candid autobiography. This was the first time I read about a black woman so it was very interesting to read how she felt being a minority in the male and white dominated United States. For the first half of her life she is in this mode of proving herself in every field she is in but after meeting Obama she is made to reevaluate her life choices. Her struggles to come to terms with her husband’s fame is portrayed beautifully. Constant struggle within to be an ideal wife-mom as well to have a satisfying career forms the undercurrent throughout her post marital life. Last part of the book showing the life in White House too was an interesting read. Overall an awesome book. One of the top biographies I have read.
