My Thoughts: I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book, from the beginning to end I was completely immersed. Becoming by Michelle Obama was informative, refreshing, honest, and inspiring. This book by far is one of my favorites and I highly recommend it to all of you. Her story was compelling and motivating, it definitely opened up my eyes to different things that are taking place in the world and how I can help other people not only in my community but in the world too. This book touched my heart, and I am forever changed by reading this, well-done Michelle Obama. Being an African American woman, this book showed me that nothing is impossible in my life and with hard work and determination I can achieve all of my goals.
