Thank you for mentioning this. I will try to watch it soon. I loved her book. Her descriptions of her early life caused me to reflect on my own childhood. I love that she wasn't afraid to dream big.

I have the audio book which is for next month's book group....apparently she narrates it. I'm looking forward to listening.

I loved the book -can't wait to watch this.

We got the audiobook to listen to on a trip. Michelle has a beautiful voice for reading and it is different than her public speaking voice. We found it so soothing that it was a bit hypnotic, not good for driving, so we set it aside. But the words were well-written. I have the print book and look forward to reading it.

The documentary was just wonderful.

I found myself disappointed.

Best years, please let me know how the documentary compares to the book.

Thinking the book might be better.

I enjoyed it, too, and now I’d like to read the book. It’s been on my to-read list for a while. It was interesting to get a glimpse into what the Obamas experienced as first family - both the good and bad.

I loved the book, and will be watching this soon. When I think about what we had and what we have now in positions of leadership, it makes me so sad.

Eld, there is really no way to compare a film to a book, particularly when the film is not a remake of the book but a companion piece. I think the film would be far more meaningful and interesting having read the book first as context.
