Michelle Obama's autobiography was a fabulous read. I greatly admired her as First Lady (and her husband as President) but getting to hear about her childhood, growing up, school, meeting Barack, and the subsequent rise to becoming First Lady was fascinating. The writing was fresh, open, honest, and made it feel like we were just sitting having tea and chatting. Listening to her struggles as she tried to figure out what she wanted to be doing with her life, as a politician's wife which she hadn't really wanted to get into, balancing family and work and politician's wife responsibilities, making mistakes, learning from them, and trying again. You know, being real, and it only increased my respect and admiration for her reading this.
