Book Review: A Promised Land by Barack Obama

A Promised Land by Barack Obama
Purchase the book.

Book: A Promised Land
Author: President Barack Obama
Format: Audiobook
Rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟(5 Stars)

I enjoyed reading A Promised Land, but I think it was a bit too detailed. As a scholar in public policy, President Obama describes and explains the reasoning behind his policies during his administration. At times, there is a unique balance between boring facts about very important decisions and the "tea" about his relationship with Michelle and how he dealt with members of Congress and other politicians.

I listened to the audiobook version of A Promised Land, so I was entertained when President Obama mimicked how some of the individuals spoke. I was very tickled when he changes his voice to sound like Mitch M. Some of the things that he shared were mentioned in Michelle's book, but I liked how transparent he is in this text.

President Obama uses profanity. Can I use this fact as a justification for my usage?! Just asking. 😼 

Also, President Obama's confirmation that his relationship with Michelle is as normal as it can be, especially with her saying that he could "sleep on the couch since the White House had so many." The emotion and humor that he uses as he reads the text continuously engages the reader.

I am excited about reading the second volume. What tea will he share in the second volume? I am here for it.

I wonder who would like to purchase the Deluxe Signed Addition. It's only about $775. 😁
