I chose to read this book because I’m quite interested in biographies because it reveals the true life-style well-known people live, rather than what reality TV shows show us. Also this book caught my eye because everything that’s written in this book is quoted from Michelle Obama herself.This book covers the ‘a diary, biography or autobiography’ category on the book blog bingo board. I was really interested in completing this category as I really enjoy reading books about true stories. I starte...
Rogak has put together a collection of Mrs. Obama's statements from various sources. Many of these reflect Obama's belief that her ethnicity is more important that her nationality and that she should be a privileged or special person. None of her statements changed my opinion about the family. but one must understand the people on the other side.
Title: Michelle Obama : In Her Own WigsOk, Michelle, you're bald as a billiard ball, but do you need 4,000 wigs? Won't 2,500 do the trick ? Applaud liberal media for Not Saying Anything. And, I am tired of your one dress "pattern" that shows off your muscular armpits. ~~ Otherwise, as Nancy Mitford would say, you're a perfect darling.
This is a easy one, Michelle tell you I am first a mother, then a wife and now the roll as the first lady. If you have children, a husband, and pet then you can understand her words.But this is the first lady, she also have other duties on top. I enjoyed this I take it out every once in while to read.
Lovely book of quotations from our former First Lady! 💚
Reading this book was such a powerful antidote to the ugliness that is happening in Washington today. Thank you, Michelle!
Loved this short collection of Mrs. Obama's words. Smart, funny lady. Also, #relationshipgoals
I would read a full biography first. But still a lot of insights on Michelle's perspective on different things.
First, I want to clarify, the book I've been reading is actually edited by Lisa Rogak, so it's not officially written by First Lady Michelle Obama, but it's supposed to be her quotes. My other problem is that it's mainly quotes from before she was the First Lady and it speaks to what her dreams were as she was thinking about the task ahead of her. I know much changed for her once she actually became the First Lady for 8 years.I'm struggling to unite the quotes into a single woman. I see First La...
This is a completely ridiculous book. It's just a compilation of quotes with no context and in seemingly no particular order. They're not even impressive, inspirational, or particular well thought out quotes. It's literally just a list of things that Michelle Obama has said in her life with no through line.I also object to the tag line referencing "views and values" as well as the foreword that implies that America needs to make some kind of assessment about this woman and this book will help th...
I knew better then to waste my time on this, but I did read it... and really - there isn't anything productive to say about it. I will file it in the fire starter pile, then I will feel I got a little bit of a return from the book.
This was an excellent book of quotes that gave me an inssight into the extraordinary mind of the First Lady. I enhoyed her sense of humour and her honesty. Definitely recommended for a short, light read
It is a great book, miraculously, the writer put to gather some of the Michelle Obama’s best contemplation and idea’s. Michelle Obama is really a special first lady and Obama family is a unique family living in white house.
It was interesting to see into how Michelle Obama feels about different issues.
